印度总统德罗帕迪·穆尔穆于 6 月 21 日根据第 95(1) 条任命巴特鲁哈里·马哈塔布为人民院临时议长。 India's President Droupadi Murmu appointed Bhartruhari Mahtab as pro-tem Speaker of Lok Sabha on June 21 under Article 95(1).

6 月 21 日，印度总统德罗帕迪·穆尔穆任命来自奥里萨邦、连任七届的议员巴尔特鲁哈里·马赫塔布为人民院临时议长。 India's President Droupadi Murmu appointed Bhartruhari Mahtab, a seven-term MP from Odisha, as the pro-tem Speaker of the Lok Sabha on June 21. 议员马哈塔布的任命是根据《宪法》第 95(1) 条作出的，允许他暂时担任议长的职责，直到选出新的议长。 MP Mahtab's appointment was made under Article 95(1) of the Constitution, allowing him to temporarily assume the responsibilities of the Speaker until a new Speaker is elected. 国大党对这一决定提出了批评，认为选择马哈塔布而不是连任八届的人民院议员科迪库尼尔·苏雷什 (Kodikunnil Suresh) 违反了议会规范。 The Congress party criticized the decision, alleging that it violated parliamentary norms by choosing Mahtab instead of Kodikunnil Suresh, an eight-term Lok Sabha member.
