Lok Sabha was shocked seeing a bag full of currency notes as bribe

 

July 22, 2008 18:15:55

The Lok Sabha witnessed high drama when a Bharatiya Janata Party member shocked the House by walking into the well with a bag full of currency notes, which he claimed was given by a Samajwadi Party leader in return for his support in the trust vote.

Amidst a flutter, Deputy Speaker Charanjit Atwal adjourned the House briefly, leaving members surcharged.

Trouble broke out when Ashok Argal, a BJP member from Morena and some others took out wads after wads of currency notes to substantiate their claim that horsetrading had taken place and heavy cash was used to "purchase" MPs for the trial of strength.

Looking at the press gallery, the BJP members alleged that an SP leader promised three of them Rs 3 crores each, of which Rs 1 crore was paid in advance.

Meanwhile, Leader of the Oppposition Lal Kishenchand Advani demanded a probe into the allegation by three BJP MPs that they were offered crores of rupees to abstain during the United Progressive Alliance government's trust vote.
