Owaisi's inclination is once again exposed!

[KushadhwajMeghdoot]

As much as you might detest the arrogance that has crept into the supreme leader and his party, taking oath in Indian Parliament after swearing allegiance to Palestine cannot be legally allowed to stand. He should be sworn in again after paying obeisance to India, the country where he physically resides and whose voters have elected him irrespective of where his heart and loyalty lies. This is the least he can do for this nation.

Print must have an episode on Kllakurichi death of 60 people in Tamil Nadu

The powers of speaker in a parliament, well explained SG 👏

[KushadhwajMeghdoot]

It is truly astounding that a member of Indian parliament is so openly flaunting his utter disregard for the nation that has bred, fed, enriched and elevated him to such high office. All other memebers irrespective of party lines should inisist that he take an oath again and formally renounce his oath of loyalty to a foreign country/territory. I wonder if it was a Freudian slip or he is truly that far gone.

I only hope the opposition behaves like a true opposition, indulging in meaningful debate instead of walking out every now and then or getting suspended. You have now shown the world you have 'protected' democracy in the country, now show that you are its worthy worshippers by behaving well in Parliament, the temple of democracy. The World needs to see this also.

Owaisi did not forget to say jai hind Mr Gupta. He did it on purpose. You are literally covering for him.

[amarnathbn]

Shekahar Guptaji, you forgot to mention why BJP is so nervous about speaker of LS and Dy.Speaker, , the saga of 13 day governmnet of Vajpayee is unforgettable, the one vote that the congress sprung out and the brazenness of all the situation, its true journalists will remember what they want to remember 🙂

Rajiv Gandhi with 400+ seats had deputy speaker but Modi with 303 seats didn't have that.
Now with 240 seats, he doesn't want to have deputy speaker.

All indications of a insecure person and personality who is small minded.

[akhilagarwal]

Sad day for Democracy the Speaker is always on consensus, this government again failed to build consensus...

[vaibhav.dvd]

The pretence of being centre is gone from Mr.Gupta. Fully committed now.

[ledgehall]

Shekhar Gupta loudly silent about the "Jai Shree Rams" hurled at Owaisi. That was utterly unacceptable.

24:50 Why is Congress opposing development of naval base in Andaman? Only the Chinese would have the problem with an Indian naval base in Andaman lol.

[rajendranathanmnair]

k.Suresh is not a dalit but converted Christian. But claims delit benefit like thousands who do so.
BTW do a CTC on when and how constitution became a 'lal kitab'
Lal kitab is Naxal document as I know.
Nations constitution as I remember was blue in colour.

[SeshadriVyas]

Stopped watching the moment Shekar slipped in an excuse for Owaisi, when Owaisi himself hasn't said that he forgot. Why does Shekar want to find an excuse for Owaisi when the video is about opposition's increased power in the parliament? Answer - secularitis, a disease which makes you be an apologist for anti-national behaviour.

Indian does not require spicy parliament. It requires economic development.
