Parliamentary disruptions: When electoral power is curbed, let rowdyism reign
FirstpostBeing politically outmanoeuvred and electorally cornered by the ruling government, the present Opposition resorts to a crasser form of disruption The Opposition justifies its boorish behaviour in Parliament during this Monsoon Session 2022 by saying it is only following the BJP lead when the latter was in the Opposition. A combination of otherwise excellent debating parliamentarians, the late Sushma Swaraj, leading the Opposition NDA in the Lok Sabha, and the late Arun Jaitley, leader of the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha, drove the productivity of the 15th Lok Sabha to its worst in 50 years. Being outmanoeuvred by such ruling government long-term strategy developments, and bereft of new ideas, or leadership that can revive its fortunes, the present Opposition resorts to a crasser form of disruption. The Congress leader of the Lok Sabha insulted the newly elected 15th president Droupadi Murmu by referring to her as “Rastrapatni” and apologising for it only in the face of a ruling party uproar.
