The bjp is the really 'democratic' party, there is no 'dictatorship' over its members. People who join it contribute to its functioning. BJPians must feel proud of it. If the leadership takes wrong decisions, some members have the courage to vote against the whip or abtsain. In the congress, all members are 'paid pipers' on sonia's money. Perhaps, all congress mps were also paid extra money to vote, besides bribes to other mps. Hence, no defectional voting away from congress. Among leftists and moslem-controlled parties, the members may follow leaders bec of mortal fears. Only the speaker had courage to show independance, perhaps bec he is much older than Karat.
