Baat Jo Palte (BJP)

The above definition fits best for BJP after their announcement that they would oppose the expulsion of tainted MP'S. There was a time when BJP brought about an order asking the expulsion of tainted MP's( of non-BJP parties) from the parliament . They staged a walk out , boycotted the parliament session. Our prime-minister and few other sensible people of the house ( these should be placed as highly endangered on the verge of extinction species) requested to resume session so that important bills could be discussed.
But they did not move from their stand, again it was the junta, aam -admi who bore the expenditure of these not in session sessions. As the figures state, the cost of running Parliament is Rs11,22,829 per hour. Normally, the two houses sit for six hours a day. So multiply and you get a huge sum, that is irrelevant to the MP's because they have seen and have more of not so hard earned money.
Now when caught on the "sting" operations "duryodhana" and "chakravyuh" the BJP says it will oppose expulsion of MP's. A wonderful situation a pary decides whether to support/oppose a bill simply on the basis of the benefits it will derive from it. And leaves the cost for the taxpayers to bear.
BJP might have this in mind that the ruling party did not follow when asked to. So why should they! But by following the same you too arent doing any better. Had you set an example by publicaly supporting expulsion not only from the parliament but also from the party. Had you introduced a bill to impose a life term ban on them (and any person caught in future) from holding any govt. post (pvt. sector wont take them so needn't worry about that) . They would have managed to keep up the support of the so called educated and literate class. This was an oppurtunity just as big as Mrs. Sonia Gandhi had when she relinquished power of the highest order in India. She directly set an example that she was not hungry for power ( which most say but forget as they get it). That led people to have faith in her , admire her for her deed and gave the aam -admi a hope that the country had made a good decision.
Similary, this was the time for BJP to set the same example of being a clean party, wash off all sins (people usually dont remember) for future elections, because this act would always become an alibi that they dont forgive corrupt people, so they dont have them too. Arre aur kuch nahin to inki bali de kar party ko to bacha lete,ab to gayi buffalo paani vich!!!
A cliche saying fits here "Oppurtunity knocks the doors once" and you let it go(very rare in politics).
On the other side, just to have a look at what have they got by supporting these " corrupt, maha -papi's, who will never change (once you have seen big money, you can't) , who formed the majority of those stung b/w their legs. It has got a makeover, that it is a party that supports corrupt , good for nothing people.
You think we cannot understand this game of numbers, dear we can, had you had one or two you would have done the same. Supported expulsion because that would not make much of a difference in you vote bank ( all those caught were baccha constituency elected). But when it exceeds a certain limit you can not , that will directly affect the votes cast in support of BJP.
See the so called jahil , ganwar junta can make out it is all a game of NUMBERS-- whether its money or votes. The more the merrier.
