List of words banned by the parliament of India (English and Hindi words)

Banned Words by the Parliament

The parliament of India has decided to ban a list of words and in both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, these words will be considered “unparliamentary”. Words like ‘jumlajeevi’, ‘Baal buddhi’, ‘covid spreader’, and ‘hypocrisy’ are a few words that are included in the list.

The booklet listing out unparliamentary words and expressions comes ahead of the Monsoon session beginning 18th July, during which the words like ‘anarchist’, ‘Shakuni’, ‘dictatorial’, ‘taanashah’, ‘Jaichand’, would be removed if used during the debates or in any of the houses of parliament. The chair has declared some words unparliamentary from time to time in different legislative bodies in India. The complication of the words contains a reference to words and expressions declared unparliamentary in Lok sabha, Rajya Sabha, and the state legislature in India in 2021.
