Isn’t
Twitter merely emulating the trolls in Indian Parliament?.
The
only other thing that is a constant in the present Lok Sabha apart from
speaker Meira Kumar’s back-from-a-vipassana-vacation smile, is the
promise that it will be adjourned at least thrice in a single day.

It’s
difficult to see a reason why our MPs, who have to pretend to be
employed for just a third of the year, should demand so many breaks in a
single work day. The
logic behind a body like the parliament’s functioning is fairly simple –
facilitating governance through passing legislatures and making sure
that the government doesn’t run amok under the critical watch of a body
in political opposition.
However, expecting an essentially political
organisation to function exclusively on those lines is probably as
realistic as expecting Bollywood to stop making actresses lip sync to
songs playing out of mountain tops and other scientifically inexplicable
locations.
