Goa Speaker's action shameful: BJP By: PTI http://web.mid-day.com/news/nation/2005/march/104916.htm March 4, 2005
New Delhi: BJP today termed as "shameful and fraud" the action of Goa Pro-tem Speaker Fransisco Sardinha in giving his casting vote in favour of the Pratapsinh Rane Government which survived a trial of strength in the state Assembly. "The Pro-tem Speaker casting his vote has never happened anywhere in India. This way of getting majority is totally wrong" former BJP President M Venkaiah Naidu told reporters on the sidelines of a programme organised by the women's wing of the party here. Terming the action as "shameful and fraud", he said "this was very much on expected lines, that is why we were protesting both inside and outside of Parliament. "We cannot expect better from this Congress-led Government which has no respect for the Constitution and they are going back to Indira Gandhi's regime," Naidu said. _____________ >From the Hindustan Times: The Centre on Friday decided to impose President's rule in Goa, Home Minister Shivraj Patil said. The assembly will be kept under suspended animation. These decisions were taken at a hurriedly called meeting of the Union Cabinet in New Delhi, hours after Chief Minister Pratapsinh Rane won a controversial vote of confidence in the assembly with the help of the protem Speaker's casting vote. The Cabinet has recommended to the President that the state be brought under Central rule under Article 356 of the Constitution. Patil said that the Centre was not happy with what has happened in the assembly on Friday and has taken suo-motu action without waiting for the Governor's report. "What has happened in the assembly today is not acceptable to us. It is not proper to have one member not to vote. This is exactly what has been done by the previous (BJP) Government," he said. http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_1266688,000900040002.htm ________ AND NOT TOO LONG AGO: http://www.goanews.com/10feb981.htm "How is it possible ?
