The article and most of the people writing about the trust vote are taking a patently wrong like. Rahul says many MP's of BJP are in favour of the deal. So he wants all of them to vote for UPA. Similarly many MP's in UPA shall be against the deal. Shall they vote against the govt. The trust vote is not for the deal but for the govt. If Congress was so sincere about the deal, they should have told every thing about this in detail to the Parliamnet as also the nation. All this is going on for almost 2/3 years. There could have been a thorough debate in Parliament as also in other forums. The govt could have asked the parliament to vote on the deal in a secret ballot like it is being done in USA. And all they did was that the parliament's approval is not required. But now the question is for the govt to prove it's majority in parliament. Once there major supporter has withdrawn its support, the govt has to prove its majority. It is the duty of the govt to arrange its numbers.No where in any democratic country the opposition provides numbers to the govt. Like written in the article also, many in the UPA may be against the deal and many in opposition may be in favour. But it does not make a difference. franky more 99% of the MP's including Rahul Gandhi & Sonia Gandhi and more then 99.99% of the public does not know ABC of the deal. Every body is just talking and talking without any knowledge. I also belong to 99.99%.
