The entire episode is a farce and a blot on the country's democracy that we could have done without! Within minutes of the bundles of notes being shown on TV, Advaniji was giving interviews saying that the three MPs had come to him and he had 'allowed' the 3 MPs to show it in the Loksabha in the full glare of live TV. As a senior leader and a veteran in politics didn't he think of approaching the Speaker first (I am not even recommending the police or the law, but the 'chief' of the lawmakers) ? If there is one person I would blame for contributing immensely in today's episode is the person I used to admire till some time ago - L K Advani! If it was not their intention to boycott the voting, why did the BJP members not allow the PM to reply to the debate and keep on chanting like school boys "istifa do, istifa do" ? Sickening! And their leaders were watching not helplessly but indulgently ! Mind you the speaker has already said that the matter is serious and he will investigate sparing none! If in today's episodeo if there was one big looser (everyone including me, as a common man was a looser!), really big looser is LK Advani and the BJP !

What is you are talking is only about technicality. But as Krishna said in Mahabharata that you can fight fairly when the opposition respects fairness.To remove thorn you must use nail. More important is to be releived.

Oh is it. Then what about Amarsing asking to show wheather it is written on notes that proves that it is given by him. He is demanding for proof. It is like an open secret everybody knows. I do'nt find it more wrong than buying parliment for securing power.Need not be so holy or diplomatic in already chaotic country.

Rajesh, I totally agree with you. He is now in his 80's and he is ready to do whatever possible to become PM as his time is running out.
First it was Babri Masjid and now this Big Farce in the parliament. By allowing this to happen in the parliamet he has done a great damage to indian democracy and parliamentary values. He is playing with the emotions of the people.
