Did the MPs know what they were voting for?I think the motion should have been for Nuclear deal rather the UPA.Thats what will happen when you have uneducated MPs with only the desire to sell there seats for money.God bless the country with such leaders.It was CPIs ego which led to all this.
Muslims getting killed in the Gujarat riots is no less than a holocaust; But poor protesters getting shot in West Bengal under Left Govt is just a plain misunderstanding;
3,000 Sikhs getting slaughtered was only a big mistake; and 400,000 Kashmir Pandits becoming refugees and thousands dead due to Islamic terrorism in Kashmir is a only political problem.
Congress denying Lord Rama's existence was simply a Clerical Error. But BJP saying it hurt Hindu sentiments is communal!
Haj subsidies for Muslim pilgrimage worth 3000 crores funded by Hindu tax money is secular; But Hindus questioning how their hard earned money is used are communal;
Banning Da Vinci Code and Jo Bole So Nihaal was Secul ar But Modi Banning Parzania in Gujarat was Communal; Chinese invasion in 1962 was just an 'unfortunate betrayal'; Kargil attack during BJP Rule was Government failure;
Fake encounters under Cong-NCP in Maharashtra [Khwaja Younus] was only an instance of Police atrocity; But Fake encounters in Gujarat [ Sohrabuddin] was Modi sponsored 'BJP' Communalism;
Talking about Islam and Muslim appeasement and Sachar is Secular; But talking about Hindus and Hindu concerns is dangerous and Communal;
BJP' freeing the terrorists (flight 814) to save Indian hostages was Shameful; But freeing 5 militants to save the life of the daughter of a minister [Rubina Sayeed] was a Natural Political dilemma;
Attack on Parliament was the result of BJP ineptitude; But Congress

Before Indipendence the Britishers rule the country by a policy called divide rule, now the congress is also doing the same they divide the muslims & christans and Hindus for their votes even after getting the indipendence over 60 years we were ruled by policy called divide and rule.

Isn't everybody else doing that? Even communists or independants select their nominees based on the majority population in the electorate. IT IS US THE STUPID ELECTORATES WHO ENCOURAGE THESE CRIMINALS.

BJP is a party of Cowards . Otherwise they must have a) protected Kashmiri Pandit during long rule. b) Banned Bole So Nihal c) Stopped Haj Subsidies d) Attacked Pak. after Kargil, Parliament attack or Akarshardham temple attack or Attack on Red Fort. e) This Advani begged his arraest when J&K Government hadnot stopped his so called Rath Yatra from entering Kashmir .
All this MPs are any way crossing the lines or creating problem in many election, so better this done now......... Now situation is that BJP dont want numbers so can expel this MP's as a strong action in a 9 month time period BJP can arrange some alternative in constituancyies of these MPs... What may be benefit of popularity of nuclear deal will reduce in 9months and again election will come on basis of corruption and inflation...
Why the BJP leaders are not taking action against those MPs drama in Trust Vote time. If you have any guts then take action against them. The drama was good. Any children can understand this is a political drama. Shame on you Mr.Advani
Lots of BJP supporters are writing as if they are hearing for the first time that MPs are taking money... what a naive bunch of people...
If you know even a little shit of Indian politics, you will know well that every Indian MPs take money... irrespective of the party they are in... among the worst is the BJP as they can easily to bought by money and it was demonstrated yesterday... NEVER VOTE BJP

Satheesh,
You are contradicting yourselves. Firstly, since you already know everyone is corrupt, why are you making a hue and cry when the MPs showed the money. Infact they did a good thing. Imagine what if they had taken the money and kept quiet. Also, showing the money in parliament is hardly wrong compared to actually bribing and buying MPs. Buying MPs is real big crime, trying the force the deal without adequate debate is a crime. That is the real issue and that is what our focus should be on, not whether somebody showed it on parliament. That at the most you could say was an undiplomatic way to trying to make your point. If someone is buying or attempting to buy MPs and forcing an ill thought of deal through our throats then those are guys who should be punished.
Please do not make emotive and senseless statements. Think of the larger and real issues.

Taking money is a crime too. Why they didn't contact vigilence? Or inform Speaker/SC Judge formally and put it on record before they went to take money? "force the deal without adequate debate is a crime" The deal has been debated in and out of the parliament for close to 2 years. Where have you been? Govt. is not obliged to take opinion of parliament in signing treaties, according to Indian laws.

MMS asked for proof for CASH for Vote and BJP MP's produced it and are you justifying giving money for vote because it is being practiced all the time sir?
RE:BJP supporters
by Satheesh on Jul 23, 2008 04:30 PM
what proof are you talking about? Even a lame person like Amar Singh as he said yesterday - can walk into a house with loads of cash and say it was BJP who gave it and say there is a CD... but someone stole the CD and escaped... what a joke...

The order of priority for Narco test would begin with Rajdeep Sardesai.
Have you all noticed that not a single political party nor has their supporters sought the NARCO test as is inflicted on every escalated to CBI case.
Nobody who got money is going to police. Nor is anybody asking for a police case.
Evidently and obviously, this was a trumped up charge and BJP cannot afford the truth to come to light.
They would be dismissed as the biggest hypocrites and nautanki's in Indian history.
Then no police or parliamentary action would be required. They know just the public will wipe out any memory of BJP from the annals of Indian Parliament. Only certain bigots and enemies of state would remain with BJP i.e. Suresh and type would be piddly trickle.

I am hearing people say, that MMS govt will go ahead with Nuke deal and some more economic reforms and then dissolve the govt even before the election for a fresh mandate. During that procedure they are sure to whither some un-wanted bunch from their fold.

You talk like this happens only in india. Have u heard anything about Corporations spending millions and billion on US prez candidates ? Guess not. That is also another form or bribery. Only that in US, a prez candidate can choose to collect money for his campaign thru govt route or non govt, in which case he can collect any money.

Yesterdays UPA win was a result of Cross Voting by some of BJP's MP. BJP didn't want support MAYA as next Pm and hence they were directed to vote in favour of UPA. It was a moral victory of BJP..
