The CCTV grab showing a minister of the union cabinet advising the gentleman on the chair of the Rajya Sabha, regarding the conduct of the proceedings is indeed saddening. It shows the way as to how people in power conduct their day to day activities, with scant regard to the customs, traditions and ethics in general conduct. Some of the political leaders do not seem to understand the meaning of 'propriety' and are far from being decent!
The irony of the whole thing was that Prof PJ Kurien was elected unanimously as the deputy chairman of the Rajya Sabha, just a while before the unfortunate incident. The overwhelming support that he got from the members of parliament - cutting across party lines - showed his all round acceptability and the show of consensus was a rare commodity in the conduct of the house after what seemed to be a long while. I'm sure he wouldn't have wanted the beginning of his stewardship to be marred by such an unsavoury incident!
Hope he's able to get over the false start with his wisdom and impartial conduct of the proceedings in the days to come.
Tailpiece.
PJ Kurien is an active member of the PN Panicker foundation and to quote him, 'a lifelong admirer of the late PN Panicker'.
