TMC MP Shantanu Sen suspended from Rajya Sabha for remaining part of monsoon session after motion passed in the House. 

Rajya Sabha Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu said, "I'm deeply distressed by the course of events in House. Unfortunately, proceedings of the House hit a new low with papers being snatched from the minister and torn into pieces. Such actions are a clear assault on our Parliamentary democracy.  Santanu Sen, please withdraw from House. Allow the House to function."
