I have been a BJPian all my life. However, how it went yesterday has really shown that now BJP is nothing but power hungry people who cant even wait for 10 more months to gain power. This was a golden opportunity for them to make a sacrifice (similar to how Mrs Gandhi got sympathy of entire nation after she disowned the PM position), and get a clear mandate and sympathy in next election. However, they just keep opposing everything. Oppostion doesnt mean that you have to oppose every single thing. Even if you want to oppose, there are ways and protocols. You have to be convincing, sober and mature. How they came up with bundles of notes in parliament was utterly childish. Its worse than how children disrupt the classroom proceedings. They also are not doodh ka dhula and know that horse-trading takes place and they do it themselves. People know it and they are not going to get any sympathy out of it. Shame on you Advani now and I regret being a BJPian so far. I have more respect for MMS and congress. At least they know how to behave in parliament.

YOu may pl. consider that BJP could not have formed a GOVT. You should rather congratulate the speaker who even in the face of horse trading charges kept his cool & took all precautions that the new coalition of the ruling party does not brand him as partisan.Had he ordered a probe & deffered the trust vote,the ruling partys interests would have not been served,& it would have appeared that he is doing opposition a favour.Many Indians in pre independent India were loyal to the ruler,what use it is to swim against the current? Congress & the ruling party coalition have won that is it.Speaker has been impatial,that is it. Long live trend?..thanks
