this speaker is the worst in the history of free india, the man has really devalued the office of the speaker beyond repair and the tragey is that he will be leaving a 3rd grade legacy that will be followed in the future..be brave the worst is coming..!! yes, i am confident that the man will resign tomoro but only after getting his double reward from madam and manu for a job well done. mr.somnath-ji thank you for accomlishing the mission...!! madam and manu will bless you..!! but the people of this country will never ever forgive you..!!
