INDIAN parliamentarians rarely make news for any of the right reasons. When Parliament is in session, it is not their debating and declamatory skills or the ability to examine threadbare the legislative agenda of the Government which attracts public notice. 

More often than not, it is their barracking and slogan-shouting, the pandemonium or uproar as the media is prone to describe ugly scenes in the House, which gets the netas (leaders) big headlines, the thumb rule being the more they shout the more their chances of making to the front pages next morning.
