Once a person becomes a Lok Sabha speaker he does not belongs to any party. He belongs to the house. He should belong to the house. His parent party can request him but can not dictate him to abandon his post. CPM can even deny him to field him as one of their candidade. But no this action of expulsion is nothing but farcical. We need more strong willed and couragious person like Mr. Somnath Chatterji.

my friend in a paper report it was mentioned that Mr.Chatterji wrote letter to Mr.Karat confirming that he don't want to vote aginst govt. alongwith BJP. It is not dignity etc. he opted for speaker chair to avoid voting along with bjp against govt.

As per my openion Loksabha speaker should be a person who is not a member of parliament but work either as supreme court Judge like that so that he will not have any pressure of any party.
