BJP HAS TRIPLE EX MINISTERS

On the 'Porngate of Vidhana Soudha'

Our politicians just can’t find favour in the eyes of the people, can they?

The image that common man has about most of our politicians is corrupt, scandalous, inefficient, etc. Well, it looks like we don’t need to change our perception at all. If it’s a scandalous story you are looking for then turn your eyes to the Karnataka Legislative Assembly where 3 cabinet ministers were caught watching unethical videos (read as porn) on their mobile phone in the House while the Assembly was taking place. All this while there was a heated discussion on whether it is right to allow a religious group hoist the Pakistan flag in one of the districts of the state. As if watching it alone was not enough, he roped in 2 other ministers to give him ‘company’ and it looks like they were all the more interested. They indeed had a heated discussion the house. The very fact that these ministers had the audacity to watch such videos in the Assembly goes to show that the interest of our politicians is not in serving the people but elsewhere. What image does this portray to the public? What happened to the age old saying that ‘government work is God’s work’? Such ministers make a mockery of the entire political fraternity and do not deserve a chance to serve the people.

Unfortunately we have no law that states watching porn in the House is an offence but if there was ever one these ministers would be punished severely.

And meanwhile this was yet another controversy in the already tainted BJP government. Opposition party leaders made the most of this incident and demanded immediate resignation of the 3 tainted ministers.

Looks like our government has “Triple Ex Ministers.”
