Somnath did right and infact this is view of West Bengal CPM too because they are connected with masses, people sitting in Delhi office without any connection with ground can not dictate term to Somnath who is in Parliament for 40 years.In any case he may cast his vote against UPA in case of tie, .atleast he is conducting house in disciplined way.He has not cast his vote for UPA so whats problem? May be Karat ego hurt again.When party whips are already issued to vote on party line this debate is meaningless.These debates are useful only when people are free to vote based on points raised in debate unfortunately the right of expression pf MPs are not with them due to Whip and anti defection law. Advani is mostly wrong these days and corrected by Pranab or George in case of his claim of not knowing about release of Kandhar episode.He has selective forgetfulness. The Govt will be survived and mainly due to MPs of BJP a party with discipline, Chaal charitra and Chintan.One BJP already in RML claiming breathing trouble by evening 10 more BJP MPs to be in real ICU to abstain.

Somnath should have disqualified the leftists from loksabha membership, for their assault on the constitutional post of speaker, punishing them for their irresponsible arrogance in politics. It would have saved the country the unnecessary trust-vote episode, making india's politics look funny in international circles.
