Lawless lawmakers

India has immense resources ( mineral, water) but we are not able to grow fast because of the fact we have inefficient government. Why? At the Indian Parliament today, there were many incidents which shows lawlessness. One Minister of Parliament had used pepper spray and irritated others. One smashed the glass table; mikes were uprooted and used as weapon. Fist fights started. Before the bill for separate statehood for Telangana began, 16 MPs were suspended. If lawmakers themselves behave in inappropriate manner, how can people live peacefully. It is very shameful. When the brief budget session of Parliament was expected to pass several bills, the entire time is wasted in the bifurcation of a state. As elections are around the corner, different parties are trying to make political capital out of the Telangana issue.  This exposes their ulterior motives clearly......This trend is most harmful for democracy in India....What is good for the people, what do the people of the state want, these are important in bifurcation of the state. But now the Congress Party thinks only about the number of MPs it can get from which part of the country. And BJP party thinks about how many seats it can get and how to thwart Congress party's gains. These legislators are not concerned about what is good for the people. This is a very sad scene.
