Numbers game for trust vote goes on

The UPA will face the trust vote over the Indo-US nuclear deal in the Parliament on July 22. Let's take a look at how the numbers are at the moment. The halfway mark of 271 will come down to 270 after Dayanidhi Maran has said that he will abstain. On paper the UPA, along with Samajwadi Party and others, have at least 277 for the trust vote.
