The left parties and the so called third front are playing only political game jeopardise the national interest.The UPA govt should win in this battle as they have no other vested interest. Dr TPV surendran,Kalpetta,Kerala.
reports say that there is 100 crore offer for each MP who votes in favour.So think this issue,it is better to make money and leave politics , after all politics is to rule theire own benifit and not to make any improvement.It is not sure that those elected MP's will win again? Now we can define Congress as Make money and share by all thiefs and Bjp is a communal, did india have any good political party ?
Somnath's allergy against NDA and communal forces slogan worked out, he got sold at good rate. @79 he can now retire and go to Bajrang dal Somnath temple!!!
Speaker is the Chairperson of the Loksabha and the party has no right to tell him to resign, they can bring no confidence motion against him. The party who is asking speaker to resign is doing unconstitutional thing. It is also duty of the person who gets elected in the post to resigne from the party immediatly for the time he is in chair of the speaker. There are few examples in past from the real democratic congressmen who have resigne from party when elected as speaker.
Myth #14: The deal is not primarily about making money; it is about creating a new U.S. strategic relationship in south Asia.
Fact: The deal is primarily about making money. The main effect of the deal will be to pardon India – to remove it as a violator of international norms. After such a change in status, there will be no impediment to U.S. arms sales. This is where the real money is, not in nuclear reactors. U.S. exporters have mentioned selling as much as $1.4 billion worth of Boeing airliners, hundreds of F-16 or F/A-18 fighter jets, as well as maritime surveillance planes, advanced radar, helicopters, missile defense and other equipment. The Russian press has even complained that the nuclear deal is a ploy to squeeze Russia out of the Indian arms market.

Very true, with the embargo removed, they would surely try pushing in the US arms and other related technologies to India. Now it would be for India to take benifit out of it. You might hear a lot of deals between India and the US if this goes through and a lot of kickbacks as well.

So what? Nothing wrong.American equipmets are far suprior to Russians. Americ always brings latest technology while Russia lags behind. See how the war planes supplied by Russia suffer.
Somnath does not fit to Speaker post. He said, I am the speaker, it is not any political post, but non-partisan. Then, how a non-partisan Speaker say, I will not resign and vote along with the communal forces, BJP? Does it shows impartiality, non-partisan? It is a clear partisan approach against BJP and in favor of Congress. Shame on you Somnath. Everybody loves power, but not selling out all norms of ethics, honesty, morality, truth, and above the dignity of the Speaker's Post.

well said. he talks about the honour of being a speaker. but desperately wants to preside over the votes casted by convicted criminals either for or against the trust. he calls all sorts of names to opposition parliamentarians disrupting the parliament, but want to usher and count convincts votes
Everything can not equalised. Today in politics, There are few politician who understand the dignity of a constitutional post/chair. Most of the political leaders neither have any knowledge of constitution nor they understand the dignity of house or chair. People who are asking to resign the Hon'ble Speaker are truely foolish in all respect. Respect the post of HON'BLE SPEAKER AND SALUTE . ===== SHYAMAL KANTI DAS

While sitting on speaker's chair he has no business to comment on ideology of the largest political party in India. As he is nolonger neutral, he should step down to speak on behalf of his organisation he belongs to.

Just a rectification, nither CPI(M) nor BJP is the largest party in this LS, whoever you are refering to.

I have used the term largest political party in India (not in parliament). BJP is the largest political party in terms of votes and seats in State assemblis.

No in absence of the speaker, deputy speaker would handle the parliament, he is Mr. C S Atwal, a Akali Dal member. Else, the parliament has to first have election for a new Speaker, which means suspention of the parliament, then Congress would anyway complete the term.

From the dirty name used by you, I think you are neither a man nor a woman but somewhere in between. The name by you is similiar to that used by your tribe when they come begging for alms after a new-born. Do not show your JAAT so blatantly

Mr Somenath chatterjee is a casuality of congress strategy to fix on ideological dilemma.There is a difference in use of political wisdom at the level of Jyoti Basu and Prakash Karat. At the party level Party secretay is the key person to carry forward party,s collective decision.Application of wisdom is a matter of maturity and experience I feel.
Here in India, they are going to get another jolt tomorrow. Beginning of an End to RED politics in this subcontinent. They are already wiped out from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Srilanka, and Bhutan. Only hindus can tolerate the traitors, the sold out souls.
