Elephants in battle

A war elephant was a military elephant that had been trained and guided by humans. The main purpose of the war elephant was to assault the enemy, break their ranks, and terrorise and terrify them. Elephantry refers to military formations that use elephants to transport troops. [1] In antiquity, war elephants played a crucial role in a number of significant wars, particularly in Ancient India. While they were only used on a limited and irregular basis in ancient China, they were a permanent staple in the armies of historical Southeast Asian kingdoms. They were also used in ancient Persia and the Mediterranean globe by Macedonian troops, Hellenistic Greek nations, the Roman Republic and later Empire, and Carthage in North Africa during classical antiquity.

Derek O'Brien, a member of the Trinamool Rajya Sabha, has been suspended from Parliament.

During protests over a bill for electoral reforms and the suspension of 12 MPs, Derek O'Brien was accused of throwing the rulebook at the Chair.

 

Derek O'Brien, a member of the Trinamool Rajya Sabha, has been suspended from parliament for the remainder of the Winter Session after reportedly throwing the rulebook and walking out. As the Rajya Sabha will adjourn tomorrow, he will be absent of the house for one day.

During protests against a bill for electoral reforms and the suspension of 12 MPs, the Trinamool member was accused of hurling the rulebook at the Chair.

 

Mr. O'Brien slammed the administration over his suspension in a series of tweets.

 

"When the government was BULLDOZING farm regulations, I was suspended from RS the last time. After then, we all know what transpired. Today, while denouncing the BJP's mockery of parliament and BULLDOZING the Election Laws Bill 2021, he was suspended. I'm hoping that this bill will be repealed as well "Mr. O'Brien sent out a tweet.

 

"The BJP has the audacity to lecture on the Norm Book after breaching every rule and precedent. Irony has recently passed away. (There were only two people at the burial.) "he penned

 

Mr. O'Brien was seen in the video quoting the rulebook to claim that the election reform law, Election Laws (Amendment) Bill 2021, was introduced without sufficient notice. Despite intense opposition protests, the law was enacted in the Lok Sabha yesterday.

 

"Has been available for at least two days prior to the date of the motion?"

 

If a law gets passed at 3 p.m. in the Lok Sabha. What happened to the time that was promised?

 

Today, this bill is not able to be listed. But everything is possible... you can even fake a majority," remarked the Trinamool Congress leader.

 

"How can I find the time as a member of this house to introduce a resolution referring this bill to a select committee?" There is no longer anything! You need to carry a bill with you. This is a bill that has no chance of passing..."

 

The bill had been allowed at shorter notice under the rules, according to Harivansh Narayan Singh, the Chair at the time.

 

Mr. O'Brien tweeted a mobile phone video after storming out of the house, stating that the government was bulldozing legislation.

"The Rajya Sabha TV channel has been censored. All opposition MPs are gathered in the Rajya Sabha well, opposing to the bill that links Aadhaar to voter identification. It is being bulldozed by the government. Parliament is being made a joke of, much like the agriculture bills. This is even worse than an emergency situation. Television is being blocked, and parliament is being assassinated "According to the Trinamool Congress politician, he was obliged to come out and videotape himself on the phone.
