Democratic failure

Published on: 

Sir — This refers to the editorial, “Irresponsible politics” (December 17). If Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi had ample evidence against the Prime Minister, why he did not venture to reveal it at the Press conference itselfIJ Elected Members of Parliament must realise the fact that making Parliament dysfunctional, staging violent protests and creating chaotic situations inside and outside the House, are unacceptable to parliamentary democracy.

Parliament, which consists of people’s representatives, is vitally assigned to translate the will of the people. This includes welfare and development of the country. Are our MPs sensitive to the very principles and conventions of parliamentary democracyIJ Their action, attitude and outlook do not give hope.
