In a particularly disgusting case, 3 BJP ministers have been made to hand in their resignations after they were caught watching porn in the Karnataka assembly. One of them was the Minister for Child Development. It seems like anybody can get into the BJP nowadays, as the so-called opposition party has largely lost its way. It's as if they've allowed themselves to be purchased and are simply play-acting at being an opposition. They no longer even have any drive or direction.
Update: Now one of the dismissed creeps and his minions have ordered a blackout to block people in his district from receiving news of his transgressions. What a pack of worthless sand-n*ggers. What kind of crap is this?

Hindu Nationalism is too important to be left to the BJP. Time for a few regional Hindu parties.
I agree - it seems that the "official Hindu nationalists" have been too easily bought out. One doesn't even see the RSS exercising any influence on important matters anymore. Perhaps the weak-minded BJP needs to be replaced with a "Coalition of the Willing" which can come together on important issues.
Further fragmenting the Hindu vote makes no sense. We have about 5 years before the country embarks on a death spiral. The BJP is at fault for not showing enough alacrity and seriousness, but then so is the Hindu Nationalist vote base if this is the typical reaction which is knee-jerk.
BJP definitely needs to get its act together and they should expel these three even if the govt falls in Karnataka. They need to stop providing such fodder to their opponents. They need to project the Prime Ministerial candidate and have a strategy for 2014 ready NOW.
Unfortunately, BJP has shown that they are easily bought. That's why they're not really doing much against Congress and its rented minions. BJP seem content with merely holding their ground (ie. holding onto whatever power or turf they have, in order to keep themselves relevant enough to be worth renting). There needs to be a change of leadership at the party helm, in addition to cleaning out these vermin. Nobody should be getting a political slot based on who their father or brother is.
@NC,
It is upto the Sangh to divide the BJP into regional parties ensuring there is no overlap of territories or fragmentation of Hindu vote. This will serve three purposes
1. It is harder for KKKangress and others to target multiple parties as opposed to a single one
2. Self-destruction is harder for multiple parties than a single one (BJP seems bent on it lately).
3. It will ensure some headway in regions that the BJP cannot seem to penetrate currently.
@san, doesn't this sound like 'entrapment'? how conveniently the cameraman was right there, poised to see the clip on the minister's phone! and it seems the same clip was sent to 40 people. how come they were not all fingered?
i think this is the February Surprise, along with the 'coup' in the maldives, intended to get the muslim vote bank to vote for the congress in the UP.
also, why should the BJP get all shamefaced? yeddy was the right guy for that. he was not at all bothered about dubious stuff, just like none of the kkkangresswallahs are. if you are in politics, you have left shame behind.
did you ever think why the ELM did not scream for manmohan/sonia to resign in the wake of ND Tiwari being caught red-handed in the TN governor's mansion romping with several young women?
is performing porn -- in the governor's mansion paid for by the public -- less of a crime than watching porn?
Rajeev, 2 wrongs don't make a right. These guys had no business engaging in that type of activity in the middle of the assembly session. What Tiwari did doesn't justify their conduct. Otherwise, it's a Race-to-the-Bottom ("my guys only peeped half the number of times your guys did"). If the BJP wants to offer a message of change, this is not the way to do it. People would be justified in thinking that BJP is just the other side of the same coin as the Congress Party. Shame needs to be brought back into politics, along with accountability.
On the subject of replacing BJP with multiple regional parties, I'll admit that it may interfere with the agenda of creating more states by breaking down the bigger non-performing ones into smaller, efficient ones.
two wrongs may not make a right, but then entrapment is not right either.
let's also not believe BJP politicians are somehow angels. to be in indian politics, you have to be crooked. the problem with BJP is not that they are not crooked, they are not sophisticated about the level of wickedness the other side will stoop to.
in other words, we should not get all worked up moralizing. this outrage is manufactured. all politicians are sleazeballs. but kkkangress politicians are traitors and sleazeballs.
I don't understand, why this outrage? They were just watching it. Remember Ms Levensky and Mr Clinton. More outrage has been manufactured for this non crime than rape and murder of a Dalit woman in Rajastan.
That is a real shame.
If this kind of sleaziness is the best we can aspire to, then I think we've already lost the fight. Expecting the BJP to be like the Congress in all ways but one really isn't the way to differentiate yourself politically, much less improve the country. There was no entrapment here, because nobody lured them into doing what they were doing. And blacking out the power in your district, just to hoodwink your constituents? Crooks are a dime-a-dozen and shouldn't be defended or conserved. It's honest people who are more prized and worth keeping around.
@San,
You are exhibiting Privithvi Raj syndrome.
There is no lace for decent folks in Indian politics. They end of losing deposit. What happened to Rajaji's political party. So, we has to chose less evil people.
