Quality of Indian politicians shines through: Fisticuffs and pepper spraying in Parliament

[Origmos]

In a new low in India's parliamentary history, pepper spray was used in the Lok Sabha resulting in hospitalisation of three MPs following a ruckus over introduction of the Telangana bill after which 18 Seemandhra MPs were suspended.
Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar expressed anguish over the incidents saying it has "shamed the country and Parliament and called it a "blot".
Unprecedented pandemonium broke out in the House when expelled Congress member L Rajagopal, an industrialist and opposed to the division of Andhra Pradesh, brought a canister from which he sprayed pepper.
Three MPs -- Vinay Kumar Pande, Ponnam Prabhakar and Balram Nai -- suffered from suffocation, irritation in their eyes and heavy coughing following which they were taken to nearby Government Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital for treatment. They were later discharged.
Many other MPs were seen coming out of the House with watery eyes and were feeling suffocated. Ambulances were pressed into service.

Pranab is himself a Congi. What sincere action can we expect out of him?

Why not arraest them and charge them with assault ......Wait you can't because they have immunity ........ Everyone in government should have immunity.

If a normal guys slaps Sharad Pawar he goes to jail. If a politician pepper sprays people he is a hero........


Hello India .......... Ab bol Sarvi ......

This pepper spray MP has since then quit politics. He recently started poll predictions and looks like he has to quit that too.

Political analyst and former MP Lagadapati Rajagopal's survey that had predicted 65 seats for Congress-led People's Front is all set to miss its target by a long margin if the first six rounds of counting to all the 119 Assembly constituencies are any indication.

Leave alone securing 65 seats, the alliance popularly known as Praja Kutami is heading towards being decimated by the TRS in Telangana.
