Bayan Baru MP Zahrain Hashim said the caucus of independent MPs has filed an emergency motion to get the House to debate the upcoming Bersih rally.
He said it is important for Parliament to debate the issue, as the independent caucus believes it is necessary for the authorities to take pre-emptive measures to stop the rally.
"We disagree with the rally on the ground that street demonstrations are unhealthy and pose a threat to national security.
"This should be discussed in Parliament and a decision should be made to urge the home minister to launch a pre-emptive strike to stop the event."
