MODIFICATION OF THE RUNNING STYLE OF THE PARLIAMENT

MODIFICATION OF THE RUNNING STYLE OF THE PARLIAMENT

PROPOSAL :

Uproar, noisy scenes, chaotic conditions, in most of the State Assemblies and in Parliament, is a common scene in our country today. Ministers and Members roar like lions. At times they pounce on each other also. The helpless speaker is very often heard saying “Please keep quiet, please, please. Krupaya baith jaia” One ex-speaker in the Parliament offered to resign saying he is sorry to say that he does not qualify to be the speaker of a house where unruly members assemble.

Media high lights such scenes very nicely. People also enjoy scenes like some one trying to climb up to the dais, someone lying flat on the table of the speaker, some body watching hot scenes in side the Assembly during the session, some one trying to stand on the chair and falling down and many similar incidents.

So many costly hours of the Assembly and the Parliament are lost. Some unruly members exhibit their muscle power and tell the voters of their constituencies that they have voted the right person to represent them in the Assembly or Parliament.

Common people feel shocked and sorry that the session ended with almost NO APPRECIABLE RESULT.

REMEDY SUGGESTED AS COMES TO MY MIND:

Science has given a beautiful gift known as Video Conferencing. Let there be a separate office for each M.P. and each M.LA, well equipped with all modern facilities like uninterrupted power supply, air conditioner, computer, scanning machine, Xerox, wi fi connection, smart phone etc and video conferencing arrangement. If the system will be operated through Video conferencing system when the speaker will request a member to speak, only that member will speak. This will be heard in all the offices of all the M L As and all M.Ps as the case may be. During the speech of a particular member, no other member can speak because the control will be in speaker’s table. The member can express himself with out interruption. When the allotted time will be over, the speaker can switch off that particular member’s desk. By this all can listen and see the hon’ble member but can not interrupt the speaking member.

SAVINGS:

1.     TA / DA of all the members can be saved. Only local traveling allowances may be paid.   

2.     No loss of time which costs a huge amount.

3.     This can not effect season, Hartal, Strike, Rail roko, Rasta rook etc.

4.     Saving money on canteen where subsidized food are supplied.

5.     Terrorists attempting to enter in to the Parliament and local people trying to enter the Assembly or Parliament House can be stopped.

6.     Gherao of Parliament House, State Assembly buildings can be avoided.

Substantial saving over such unwanted things can be done

The Engineers and Scientists can be requested to make the performances of the system and equipment much better and cost effective.

Hope this will draw due attention.
