COMMOTION IN LS |
Last few days of Lok sabha
were very stormy. Every party and its members want to score few goals to show
their voters to get their votes again to reelect. It is in particular true for
Members of Congress who come from Seemandhra region of Andhra Pradesh. Their
political future is in doldrums. Many political pundits have predicted their
chances of reelection almost nil. Such predictions have forced them to defy
every parliamentary tradition and to trash decorum of party in Lok sabha.
Telangana bill has evaporated the fear of AALAKAMAN from the minds of MPs of
Seemandhra region. They dared to challenge the power of Prime Minister and even
to mother- son duo Sonia and Rahul. Despite clear intimidation and candid
instructions all the Cabinet ministers and members of Congress party came in
well to register their protest against the bill. Their body language showed
their dejection and frustration. The emotion ran so high in them that even a
shouting MP refused to budge cabinet minister’s request to come back from well.
MPs from other parties from
the region had also shown similar sentiments before got suspension in the house.
The morally low lot of MPs wants to show their voters about their concerns by
practicing unparliamentarily things in the house. They want attention of
cameraman so that their activities some how reach to their constituencies.
On the other hand BJP MPs are
being seen as most disciplined lot in the running budget session. Their role of
opposing the activities of government is being taken by the members of ruling
party itself. I barely had seen any protest activity by members of BJP on act
of government in the last week of session. To many it might be seen as a
surprising thing but to me it shows their confidence which has built up over
the days by the pre election surveys done by different news agencies in the
past six months. It also comes out in the statements of leadership of BJP many
of whom openly say about forming of next government in sixteenth lok sabha
under the hegemony of Narendra Modi. Many leader of BJP have started talk arrogantly
as if they are already in power.
RAHUL GANDHI IN LS |
Congress MPs on the other
hand are being seen as a lot which is going to loss its position of privilege. Many political pundits see it a bad omen for a
party which has ruled the country over five decades. Apathy of Congress
leadership with party affairs is high. During the whole drama of passing the
Telangana amendment bill in lok sabha Congress vice president was seen busy
talking with few young MPs and distributing chewing gum to them. This shows the
height of hallucination in which a party is living just before less than
hundred days of next lok sabha election.
