As envisaged in G.O. no. 65(1)/1-66-CX, dated January 16, 1957, intimation
about the arrest, detention and release of Members of Parliament should be sent to the
Speaker, Lok Sabha in prescribed form. In this connection, attention is invited to rule 229
and 230 of Rule of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the Lok Sabha for scrupulous
compliance. A similar procedure is to be adopted in respect of Members of Rajya Sabha
and State Legislature. Information about the arrest, detention, release, etc. of members of
the Lok Sabha/Rajya Sabha, Members of State Legislature, should invariably be sent
either by telegram or wireless to Speaker/Chairman immediately followed by a formal
written communication in the prescribed form in terms of G.O. no. 65/1-66-CX, dated
November 18, 1966.

C.L. No. 64/VIII-e-24, dated 23rd July, 1959

The correct procedure regarding execution of warrants of arrest against
Members of Parliament and State legislature within the precincts of the House is as
follows:

Rule 232 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in Lok Sabha
(Fifth Edition) provides that ―No arrest shall be made within the precincts of the House
without obtaining the permission of the Speaker‖. Rule 233 lays down that ―A legal
process, civil or criminal, shall not be served within the precincts of the House without
obtaining the permission of the Speaker‖.
