Lokpal bill

All party meet was called by ruling party on proposed Lokpal bill.There were many disagreements on crucial issues but they all agreed for an effective and strong bill.
It is hilarious to note that there are always controversies and disagreements amongst politicians on issues concerning public interest such as Lokpal bill; but there is instantaneous consensus on issues concerning self interest - raising salaries and perks.
They proclaim to bring a strong and effective Lokpal bill to combat corruption lest they lose in elections but they want to ensure that corrupt ones are not harmed.

Anna and Baba Ramdev

During one of live talk show on "Times Now" channel,one of the politician participant questioned in the context of agitation by civil society, "are they uncivil ?".
Well,with little bit of glimpse of their unruly behavior in the parliament (very rare telecast),we could see them shouting down each other,total disregard to the chair person,throwing mikes,chairs or what ever they could lay their hands on,certainly is "uncivil".
They legislate with unanimous voice only to raise their salaries,perks and privileges almost snatching from the pocket of the poor exchequer,is certainly "unethical".
They use and misuse with impunity perks and privileges.We see day in and day out MPs,ministers flying (domestic and abroad) with bunch of sycophant followers,whole herd of family members totally free,make unlimited free calls to their kith and kin abroad,this can go on and on.This certainly is "uncouth".
They behave like monarch,always calculating and manipulating just to perpetuate their monarchy, highly selfish and sensitive only to vote counts.
People have now gathered courage and got voice through Anna and Ramdev to tell that the "King" is "Naked".They have to listen and the time has come that they put on nice and clean robe.They should now climb down from self created high pedastal and serve the people for which they were elected and are being paid also,that too quite handsomely.
