The
Lok Sabha Speaker, Somnath Chatterjee was moved on Monday
when the members created scenes in the Parliament and used
objectionable words on the issue of ill-treatment to north
Indians in Mumbai and some other districts of Maharashtra.
Irked over the behaviour of the MPs the Speaker commented
that the House had become an arena of play. RJD, JD(U), BSP
and SP commented lightly whereas, a member of Shiv Sena was
not behind to use objectionable words. Chatterjee at last
had to tell the House that this type of conduct amounted to
gross indiscipline and a danger to the country's harmony.
The unwanted and objectionable comments of the Shiv Sena MP
were not taken on record. People give example of Indian democracy
to the whole world. But for last few years the conduct of
and activities of MPs have hurt this concept. Now, the MPs
and MLAs do not bother about the honour of the parliament
or assembly. Increasing tendency of making hurdles in the
House is a matter of great concern. The people's representatives
are not able to present their views in an effective and orderly
way in the House. Rather the bad behaviour of these representatives
is sending a wrong message to the people who elected them
with high hopes. It should be kept in view that the people
elect them to raise questions in the House regarding their
problems. Solution of any burning problem can be arrived at
through sincere talks only. In no case the people's representatives
should utter words that may create divisions in the country.
It is hoped the members understand the genuine concern of
the Speaker and mend their ways. People elect them so that
there is a stable government in the country to run its affairs.
