Games Politicians Play!

This has reference to the news reports regarding the fall of J&K Government (July 8), poaching of MLAs by ruling BJP in Karnataka to safeguard its throne and crown and the Left parties’ decision to withdraw support to the UPA Government at the centre are indicating that the people’s representatives are busy in keeping each other at tenterhooks. Instead of finding solutions to the pressing problems of the people and to provide good governance at the time of crisis, they are making mockery of democracy and insulting their constituents who have elected them to power assuming that they will work towards betterment of their respective constituency and its people. We, the voters have to learn lesson from this expensive (spent crores of taxpayers’ money in conducting elections) political drama and show the place to the “camp changers” in the ensuing assembly bye-election in Karnataka (due to the resignation of MLAs elected 40 days back!).
