Lok Sabha elects speaker for the first time in decades as NDA and INDIA blocs fail to reach consensus.

The Lok Sabha is set to elect its speaker for the first time in decades as the ruling NDA and opposition INDIA bloc failed to reach a consensus for the posts. The NDA's pick is Om Birla, who previously served as speaker, while the INDIA bloc nominated eight-time MP K Suresh. This marks the first election for the speaker since the previous speaker, Om Birla, was elected unopposed.
