Everyone is showing interest to know what are the powers of this speaker.
 The Speaker's responsibilities are to ensure that there is no confusion in the house and that the activities go smoothly. But if any mla commits defection from the party, then the speaker has the authority to disqualify those members. If any mla violates the rules, action can be taken against them. If necessary, the Speaker has the power to suspend the House. And when any resolution is passed in the house, if there are equal votes on both sides, then the Speaker's vote becomes crucial to get the resolution approved. It is also noteworthy that the speaker decides the agenda of the assembly meetings. That is why the speaker has the first priority in the assembly. It should be said that the Speaker has similar powers not only in the assembly but also in the Lok Sabha.
