Most Goans were seen very eager to listen to the verdict delivered by the Supreme Court (SC) of India in connection with coalgate and CBI. Immediately after verdict was passed by SC, Goans got the chance to listen to what Sushma Swaraj was saying against UPA II chair person. Yesterday, Sushma Swaraj said the Congress had violated the understanding reached at the meeting called by Speaker Meira Kumar on Monday that she (Swaraj) would be allowed to speak before BJP members walked out to facilitate the passage of the Finance Bill, Appropriations Bill, Railway Budget and Demands for Grants.
Barely two minutes after Swaraj started speaking, the Congress president Sonia got into action. She incited ministers and her party members to disturb Swaraj's speech. Strangely, the parliamentary affairs minister was at the forefront. With utmost pain Swaraj observed that the Speaker instead of controlling the ruling side started telling Swaraj to wind up her speech "With all responsibility, it is my allegation that the UPA chairperson has no faith in India's parliamentary traditions and no respect for democratic institutions." That was why, Swaraj alleged, Congress leaders were denigrating all democratic institutions, be it the CAG, PAC, JPC, CBI or Supreme Court. "In Parliament, they don't allow the Opposition to speak," Swaraj said. Swaraj also reminded that Sonia has led the government charge in the past as well; Swaraj also said the situation had escalated to beyond endurance now. I've seen on live TV covering the inciting actions of Sonia on both occasions! What is funny of Sonia is that she rarely talks in the parliament but prefers to not allow opposition (mainly Sushma) to speak in the parliament as though she is obedient student who follows the unwritten law "teri bhi chup.meri bhi chup."
