This winter session of parliament started on 22/11/11. Going by the media reports, nation is made to know that during this session many important bills are to be taken up for discussions and passing. This includes bill on Lok Pal and many other matters of national and public interest. It is sad to observe that the Parliament could not transact any business and both houses of parliament continue to be adjourned till 24.11.11. Then on 24.11.11 itself a young man gave a slap (thapparh) on the face of a central govt. minister Mr Sharad Pawar. On 25/11/11 when the house again assembled, the Lok Sabha speaker at the very beginning put up a resolution reporting the SLAP incident. The house was one in condemning the incident and wishing severe punishment for the young man who did this act of SLAPING. Bad it is to assault any one in public, and normally the incident deserves condemnation. During passing of resolution of condemnation of the incident there was generally no disruption in the house (A rare occasion) AND EVERY ONE SEEMED ONE ON THIS SCORE. During this period there seemed not even a single voice to point out to the “WHY “of such types of incidents. None even tried to go into reason of ANGUISH the young man must be having that he dared to do this dangerous act of attacking a MINISTER that too in full glare of many where he was sure to be caught and punished. There were also no suggestions for introspections by the political class on the matter. As soon as this resolution was adopted, again there were disturbances and pandemonium in the house; though in the LOK SABHA two/three bills seemed to have been passed in a huff without any discussions there upon. Mostly the related proceedings were all drowned in the noise. The noise and disruptions were so loud that it seemed not possible to make out as to what exactly transpired in the HOUSE. Again, as conduct of the house seemed not possible it was adjourned to meet on 28/11/11. RAJYA SABHA too for similar reasons was adjourned. THESE TYPES OF DISTURBANCES are not witnessed for the first time, rather this seems to have become the culture at almost all the legislatures and parliament at the centre. To quote a few, MURDERS, RAPES, DECOITIES, EXTORTIONS, BRIBERIES, burning of public and private properties do take place in the country almost daily, but for them none seems worried and no discussions take place in the PARLIAMENT. Question is why this issue only. Then there are instances of wastage of public money for selfish ends and for self praise, like putting up of publicity through media, hoardings and construction of monuments etc, where lot of public money is wasted and natural resources consumed. Do all these acts not deserve similar attention and condemnations of the elected ones and the ministers? In general perception the elected persons are our leaders [KARANDHARS] WHO ARE SUPPOSED TO BE WELL VERSED IN THE TENETS OF MANAV, RAJ AND RASHTRA DHARAMS and that way, they must be putting up all their knowledge, resources and energies to keep the nation and citizenry safe and secure from all types of troubles and problems. But here they seem concerned with their personal security, safety and progress of themselves and their nears and dears only. After this slap incident members of the victims political party created road blocks and also did some burnings to protest the incident. They do not seem to remember that the public inconveniences by these acts are not at all involved in this slap incident. Then who gives them right to create problems for all and sundry. If the Govt. of which the victim is a cabinet minister is not able to ensure proper GOVERNANCE then why general public be made to suffer. These very people there after reached the place of Shri Anna Hazare to protest against what he expressed on this incident of SLAP. There too it was the general public who was inconvenienced. It could again have been more SATVIK to introspect on the wordings of all who express on this issue. Will the political class not do well to themselves if they try to gauge the public mood as it exists in the country as of now.
Going by what has been mentioned here to fore, request to our KARANDHARS is to keep their cool even on such incidents and even if some individual incidents are to be taken up in the LEGISTATURES, such discussions can generally be keeping in view the oath taken by them as MEMBERS OF THESE AUGUST HOUSES and must do their full duty to the nation by participating in the proceedings, framing of positive and progressive laws for the safety and prosperity of all that is for the present as well as the future generations. If at all, some times resentments have to be expressed, these too can be done in the way that enhance the images of the karandhars so much so that none ever thinks of any ill will and disrespect for this class of persons. The general public too can try to force the elected ones to perform their prescribed functions and responsibilities in full and with full commitment to the nations and its citizens. AFTER ALL THE ELECTED ONES HAVE GOT THE POSITIONS FOR LIMITED PERIOD ONLY AND SUCH POSITIONS ARE AGAIN DUE TO COURTESY OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC and duties given to them must be fully and honestly performed.
RAJNEETIKARON SE ANURODH HAI KI OH APNE KO STATESMEN BANAYEIN AUR VYAVHAR RAJNETAON KI TARAH KAREN. JANTA SE ANURODH HAI KI WOH IN LOGON KO AISE VYAVHAR KE LIYE BADHYA KARTE RAHEN.
