Today on the newshour debate one of the Congress MLAs named Guttedar was so shamelessly defending the tour that it made your blood boil.... he did not even have the sense that the entire nation was judging him ..

He even said that going for such tours is their right and it costs a pittance of Rs. 1.25 Cr only per head. for the government.

Most people wont see that kind of money in their entire life time and this MLA has the audacity to speak as if spending that money belonging to the oublic as their birth right ! Even the CM of Karnataka supports the tour saying everyone has been going during previous years . So we caan see how our money was being spent by the successive governments..

There is no issue with spending the amount if they can explain what benefits these tour have given to people.

Yet another feather in the cap for the Congress party in Karnataka which is now on its way to organising the 4 th study tour in its one year odd existence ! Last year a group of 15 were sent to study Machu Pichu,Iguazu and other toursist spots in South America and later a group was sent to Japan, Thailand,China and Singapore for more studies and then it was aother Group is now in Figi,Australia and Newzeland which left on the 24th December and now the latest one will study the amazonian forests and also the waterfalls etc in South America...
Need we say any more ?

Of course there is an issue of spending the amount since they are going for a plaesure trip and according to the MLAs own admission it is for pleasure that they are travelling and have a right to do so...I think this is one law that needs to be amended, hopefully AAP will take the initiative and stop all such nonsense ...

AAP cannot afford this luxury. They are just in Delhi Union territory where the budget and every law has to be finally approved by center.

After all the hue and cry raised by the media over the Karnataka legislators tour junket finally Rahul Gandhi was forced to take a stand, of course Congress will make it now look as if they always intended it that way like they did with Lokal where Rahul first wanted it to be thrown into dustbin and later went all out and now claims it is his idea to bring in Lokpal instead of Anna Hazare - anyway the tour idea seems to have got stuck at least until the elction I would think...and if Congress somehow manages to come to power everything will become topsy turvy ..

Glad to know, the tour idea got stuck up. It seems sometimes wisdom dawns on Congress men also.

It is not the wisdom but the outrage that was raised by the media...Earlier Rahul wanted to tear the lokpal bill and throw it in the dustbin and later had to eat his words when he realised that Anna will not let it go, so in a hurry he got the bill passed takig credit for it in all his speeches....similarly here he dint want the media to get any credit so apparently called the CM Siddaramaiah and asked him to cancel it !
