MP’s behaviour

August 04, 2016 12:25 am | Updated October 18, 2016 12:37 pm IST

It was dismaying to read about the behaviour of AAP MP Bhagwant Mann who is said to attend Parliament in an inebriated state (“Three MPs want Mann sent to rehab”, Aug. 3). The fact that even his party MP has complained to the Lok Sabha Speaker about “the smell of alcohol” and seeking a relocation of his seat shows the gravity of the issue. That he is a habitual offender is even more appalling. The institution of Parliament is sacrosanct and our elected representatives must remember this.
