Privilege motion to some members of the Anna team is ridiculous
Only a couple of days back a sandal was hurled by an MLA on the a fellow MLA in the Rajasthan assembly. We had also viewed how a vulgar remarks had been made against a lady MLA by her fellows of the Congress right within the Vidhan Sabha precincts in M.P. What about fisticuffs,hurling of not only abuses but chairs and all forms of missiles in J&K and UP assemblies? There are numerous instances the most repugnant was an attempt to disrobe a lady legislator right on the floor of the house of a south Indian state. Now she is a chief minister.
We all in Bihar know about the credentials of Sharad Yadav who is a leader in habit of riding piggyback on Lalloo or Nitish to win an election. He has no popular support. Once Devi Lal had commented “Jiske tan pur Kapra na thaa usko maine Kapra mantri bana diya” i.e the person who was in rags was made minister of textiles.
Therefore I appeal to the MPs not to be so intolerant to public criticism and should take all this in stride. Legally speaking also, the remarks do not constitute defamation or an affront to the august institution or its members.
