A substantive motion is an independent, self-contained proposal submitted for the approval of a legislative house or assembly, drafted to express a decision or opinion.

“No privilege motion notice. I have given a substantive motion notice, wherein I have mentioned how he visits Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia with the Soros Foundation, Ford Foundation and USAID, and colludes with anti-India forces,” Dubey alleged.

The BJP MP demanded that the “Lok Sabha membership of Gandhi be cancelled and that he be debarred from contesting elections for life”.
