This is with reference to this article
Our Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha get adjourned every now and then, due to the unruly and uncouth behavior of our elected representatives. How much does it cost to conduct a session in parliament? How much does the Indian tax-payer have to pay for the harakiri that our chosen representatives carry out in both the houses of Parliament. Its a disgrace, watching them on TV, having a go at each other as if they are kids in a play-pen.Should there not be a way to gauge the efficiency and effectiveness of these sessions ? Should people not be punished for wasting time and stalling proceedings ?
Here are some instances(videos) where the house has been adjourned in the recent past.
Dec 15th '09 - Lok Sabha Adjourned as MP's spar over Telangana
Dec 16th '09 - Lok Sabha adjourned over price rise
March 11th '10 - The Lok Sabha was adjourned for the day on Wednesday after Mulayam Singh Yadav, Sharad Yadav and Lalu Prasad staged noisy protests demanding that the seven MPs suspended in the Rajya Sabha a day earlier be taken back
March 15th '10 - Opposition members force repeated adjournments on Dantewada attacks
March 16th '10 - The Tharoor-IPL issue
When will our leaders learn to have a civilized dialogue ? Is this the way its done in every other democratic country ? I don't think so. I'm sure this exclusively happens only in our very own Incredible India.
