The Speaker has rightly pointed out that the oposition should play its role as opposition by taking meaningful part in the discussions. The opposition is not endearing itself even to its supporters like me by such tactics. There are many areas in which UPA government has failed miserably and, with intelligence and patience the opposition could make capital out of it. There are several past sins of the present day rulers that need to be discussed threadbare, which the opposition is failing to do. It seems that the political class as a whole is bored with running the government and the parliament. The parliament sessions seem to be essential burden that they have to bear for the privileges that they enjoy at the cost of the people. The show must go on seems to be their only concern, not out of any loyalty for the show, but for making the show of being true demicrats. If the opposition is not participating, why don't the ruling allaince members discuss the issues thoroughly so that bills are not passed without discussion and enlightenment of the people of the country who are presently silent spectators to the hihacking of the country by egtistical and selfcentered politicians? That would truly be in the spirit of democracy. But that cannot be because that will involve homework and keeping away from pleasures to which they are addicted. As for the opposition, they should know that sensible people are leaving your noisey bandwagon.

Sure, but then how will it help to disturb the proceedings to get their reply. I am saying exactly that both, the ruling and the opposition parties are not interested in the functioning of the Parliament at all, all they want is to enjoy at the cost of the people.
