There are many legal hassels and Indian democracy is a mess of the first order. 1. The votes polled by each MP is 20 to 30% of the 40 to 50% of the total votes polled. The parties themselves have got around 30% of the votes polled. This is first issue. 2. Every MP has his human and fundamental rights to vote. If at all there was a polling in every constituency in India beforehand about the nuclear deal, then each MP had to vote as per the peoples wish. Since there is no referendum any MP can vote as he/she feels. Courts can not interfere. The MPs can move the Internation Human Rights Commission which will interfere and uphold rights of each MP 3. Remaining absent is a cowardice action because people who elected an MP didnot want such a cowardly action. So all MPs should attend can be a whip by the parliamentary affairs committee except those who are sick. Even absent MPs should be taken to task by the voters. 4. Indian democracy is one of the lowest in the democracies of the world because no MP is answerable to anybody. If you question you are beaten up. 5. It is only a question of time when we all fall apart into pieces because of regional parties who will demand anything and the so called present national parties like Congress and BJP will be in the siding like the passenger trains and the regional party trains will zoom. 5. This is the beginning of the end of the so called National parties who never bothered about the regional developments but their own developments.
