BJP has given the scope of precedenc ein every aspect. Without consulting the opposition it named the President's candidature so also did not offer the post of Dy.Speakership to the opposition nor did it keep the speaker's post to itself. When it is convenient it speaks of convention. Did it consult about Ram Temple Construction with its allays beofre finalising its manifesto? Has the party learnt any lesson and trying to make a damage control exercise with its NDA partners? It is the generosity of the UPA to offer the postion.

BJP can win or loss on its own do not need fake PM to offer some silly offers. If I were BJP president I would ask PM to mind his own business and focus on governance rather than offering BJP to take up Toiler Cleaning, Gate keeping works....
Advaniji shall renounce his position as leader of opposition and deny the opportunity for this toppa thalayan to have the most experienced person sitting as the leader of opposition. He must ask some of the sand bags in BJP to be the leader of opposition for this Thuglak Dharbar.
Parliamentary proceedings are expensive and very important for the functioning of democracy. The way our politicians behave and treat each other, that too during live telecast of proceedings, is very shameful and really reflects on the politics of India.

There is also very amusing part to these proceedings. When looked at from the perspective of entertainment, they are more entertaining than any movie. - You sit down - You stand up - You stop talking - You start talking - If you talk again I will send you out of the room. There is no way these proceedings cant remind everyone of their school days.
By putting up Meera Kumar, who is a (so-called?) dalit leader in Indian vote bank politics and a woman, for Lok Sabha Speaker position, the Congress wants to kill many birds in one stroke. It is a known fact that she can not run the house as efficiently as Mr. Somnath Chartterjee and P.A.Sagma did in the recent past despite presence of rowdy elements. Of course, the standards of debates were all time low. Meera Kumar would definitely fail to deliver if the scenes of last Lok Sabha are repeated. But who will dare to do so sacrificing dalit votes. This is as much to counter Mayabati as it is for all other parties who matter for dalit votes. If Meera Kumar fails in televised house proceeding, the Congress will go around propagating that a dalit is not allowed to work in a high position. Mayabati, who largely depends on dalit votes of cow-belt that the Congress is looking for too for its political revival, has large number of upper cast MPs. In the past, it was seen that the MPs of BSP and SP were more turbulent. Now in the presence of Meera Kumar, it can be hoped that house proceedings which started getting degenerated since the days of 'Sunjay caucus' of 1977-1979, will be different this time.

Mr. Somnath Chartterjee? Ran efficiently? Do you mean passing the confidence vote when the principal opposition party exhibited wads of currency. If their allegation was untrue, do you think he would have kept quiet. He was so 'dynamic' that he would have given a judgment all by himself. and then bragged that he upheld the office of the speaker.

this loose is for loose motion. Whatever the motion they brought became loose (like non confidence motion.

It is a good interpretatios. However, when used alone, it will be taken as a noun derived from the verb 'lose' only.

All these convntions are all there to fool thepeople. We know how the Speaker(esp the last one), President, Vice-President, Charman RS & their Deputies behave and how the LS is conducted. All these waste of money. The Officials can run the country better.

India does not have the guts to convict a CM who orchestrated the riots in the first place & the media shamelessly covers his sick speeches of hatred. Which media are u talking about ??

That CM has been winning elections, though not from Nehru family. So, don't cry foul.
