Speaker G. Karthikeyan adjourned the Assembly for the day as slogan-shouting Opposition members occupied the well of the House.
Turmoil over the sensational ‘solar scam’ led to an early end to the proceedings of the Kerala Assembly on Monday even as Opposition activists clashed with the police outside the House.
Speaker G. Karthikeyan adjourned the Assembly for the day after rushing through the day’s curtailed business. Earlier, he had suspended the proceedings for nearly an hour when the slogan-shouting Opposition members occupied the well of the House.
The Opposition uproar continued on resumption as well. Once it became clear that the House cannot transact normal business in the face of loud Opposition sloganeering, the Speaker first curtailed the business and then rushed through the financial business to declare an early end to the day’s sitting.
READ THE WHOLE ARTICLE @ THE NEWS
Well, I'm not fixating on the Southern Part of India, I guess the Hindu feels that they should not be deserted and keeps fixating on them. Anyhow, this is a classic Indian news, it talks about a scam, riots in the Legislative Assembly and the meeting being adjourned without any results.
Scams are like the very fuel that keeps the media going, I mean if there has not been a Scam for the last six months (Broader Period to avoid any discrepancies), there is something wrong, or maybe it came up and was not big enough to be discussed all over.
Well, I can at least say that Kerala lives up to the expectation of the state with highest literacy and Government Activity when they pulled of a 'Solar Scam', many States would not even know such kind of scam is even possible. I sometimes wonder when the ministers propose a bill in the Assembly, do they already plan on what fronts can they scam the nation and if it is worth their efforts to put it up, i.e. will the scam produce enough return for them to get the bill acted upon. That I think would truly be consideration while proposing a bill.
This report also talks about the ministers chanting slogans and not allowing parliamentary proceedings to take place which would have happened even if there was no scam. That is the power of opposition in India, they don't care what's on the agenda, they'll just oppose. They don't care what the speaker has to say to them, I mean they would even oppose if the Speaker asked them to speak.
Also, the report said that the Opposition says that the state is preventing the Chief Minister from the CBI investigation. Well, D'ah! You don't expect the mother to let go of the son, now do you? and even so, CBI investigation is more like Congress Bureau of Investigation, and will not harm a Congress employee. Talking about the Home Minister being ready for all kinds if inquiry, I mean why would they be not, the report has to be passed from their tables too.
I guess, that would be enough government Bashing for today as I don't even know if the news is true or not, so I should not take sides right now, anyhow news about scams are reminders of the fact that, 'Anything Is Possible'.
