27-03-2023 : According to official sources, Rahul Gandhi, a Lok Sabha member who has been disqualified, has been given notice to vacate the official bungalow allotted to him by April 22. The Housing Committee of the Lok Sabha issued the notice after Gandhi was disqualified following a criminal defamation conviction and a two-year jail sentence handed down by a local court in Gujarat on March 23. It is mandatory for a disqualified Lok Sabha member to vacate the official bungalow within one month of losing his membership.
However, Gandhi can request an extended stay by writing to the Housing Committee, which will then consider his request. Additionally, the notification sent by the Lok Sabha Secretariat to various departments, including the Directorate of Estates and the New Delhi Municipal Council, has put all benefits available to Gandhi as a member of Parliament under review.
