Blog : Morality of BJP Ministers in Karnataka
It is indeed a matter of big shame that BJP neither demanded dismissal of its three highly immoral ministers in Karnatak from membership of the assembly nor suspended them from primary membership of the party for misusing immunity by seeing and forwarding porn films on mobile-phone during serious debate in the state-assembly. Seeking resignations just from ministerial posts is not enough. Interesting aspect is that BJP leadership is giving a set of excuses requiring public to accept any of these excuses! Giving too much excuses in itself proves the guilt which even has recorded witness of TV cameras.
Since BJP Speaker of Karnatak assembly did not register any complaint for the offence with police, it is necessary that often misused immunity available to members of legislative Houses (both in Parliament and state-assemblies) may be immediately abolished to bring any unlawful activity of erring members of legislative Houses under normal law of land. Just an in-House enquiry in the matter is not at all enough because House Committees and Chairpersons are usually soft on unlawful acts of members. It may be recalled that an RJD Lok Sabha member Rajesh Manjhi, once found guilty of taking another woman on travel-pass of his wife, was debarred from attending just 30 sittings of the Lok Sabha for his guilt that too when he even tried to mislead Lok Sabha panel set to enquire his misconduct.
