27 Suspensions Later: Government-Opposition Relations At All-Time Low?
It is turning out to be quite a monsoon wash out in the Parliament. The week gone by saw 27 MPs suspended for creating a ruckus in Parliament.

An erring Adhir Ranjan and his utterances for the President drew the ire of BJP MPs. The Congress MP called the new President 'Rashtrapatni'. He then later issued an apology, but along the sidelines, a Smriti Irani-Sonia Gandhi spat began. Each party is giving out their own version of what happened.
