Reply of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to the debates on confidence vote has been postponed till 6.30 p.m. as bundles of crores worth currency notes allegedly offered to 3 members of BJP to purchase their support for the government hit the House and rendered it speechless much ahead of scheduled closure of debates.
Even as the government side is trying to strike over it a brush of conspiracy, BJP claims to have placed the proof before the Speaker as caught by reputed TV channel camera.
This is, either way, a black day in the life of Indian democracy, confess both the sides, notwithstanding how it affects the confidence vote.
