And they are elected by us,THE PEOPLE OF INDIA, by the largest democratic process in the world, not intruded into the parliament on their own or by any qualification. This is how all our tax money is been swallowed and price hike on our regular commodities.......

But still these people are not contended with themselves.They still want more money,more positions.They are reluctant to leave other offices of profit they hold.
First of all,they should comit themselves to people,carry out the responsibilities they bear on their shoulders,fulfil the hopes the junta that elected them kept on them.

THey themselves shud quit before they face the humiliation irrespective of how reputed families,they come from.
