political parties of all hues and shades show their helplessness in accepting Anna's demand to pass Jan lokpal bill. They are unsuccessfully trying to hide behind parliamentary procedures and giving the execuses of supermacy of parliament and maintaining high parliamentary standards. What happens to the supermacy of parliament when there is no quorum and all benches are virtually empty when important matters are listed for discussion? Or whem the concerned M.P. is not present in the house to ask question during the question hour? What happens when at the drop of the hat they disrupt the house costing the exchequer crores of rupees? How all that was done to get the nuclear treaty enacted maintained high parliamentary standards? Actually it is not the supermacy of the parliament it is the security of political leaders to lead corrupt life with immunity that is at stake. that is why there in a silent unanimity to obstruct enactment of this bill by hook and by crook. This attitude of politicians reminds me of Women's Reservation Bill when there was a concensus among all male M.Ps. to somehow obstruct the enactment of the bill. Some did it overtly while others were active covertly . Surprisingly the former werer not criticized by the latter for subverting the dignity and supermacy of the parliament and its porcedures. The execuse of maintaining the supermacy of the parliament and its porcedures is being use to subvert jan lokpal bill. Unfortunately, in this unholy alliance of all political parties Women M.Ps. are siding with their male colleagues.
