The Ethics Committee of the Delhi Assembly today recommended BJP MLA OP Sharma's expulsion from the House for abusing AAP MLA Alka Lamba.

The 10-member Ethics Committee held Sharma guilty since he had been a habitual offender. The committee recommended Sharma's expulsion from the House to the Speaker. Though Sharma had been given several opportunities to explain the incident and apologise to Lamba, the BJP legislator from Vishwas Nagar had failed to do so.

The committee, in its report, concluded that Sharma is a habitual offender of making unparliamentary remarks especially against women MLAs.

The Delhi Assembly witnessed clashes between AAP and BJP lawmakers in November 2015 after reports claimed that OP Sharma had used abuses and unparliamentary language against AAP MLA Alka Lamba.

Sharma had denied the charges. "I never abused Alka Lamba. AAP is free to file an FIR against me. In fact, it was Lamba who tried to slap me and abused me. CCTV footage will reveal the truth," Sharma had told India Today TV.

Sharma was even suspended from the Assembly for a few days for his reported foul language against Lamba.

Last week, Sharma was caught on camera thrashing a CPI worker outside Patiala House courts when JNU student leader Kanhaiya Kumar was being taken to the court. The Vishwas Nagar MLA was arrested yesterday but released on bail shortly thereafter.
