Parliamentary (Un)Functioning

The repetitive disruptions and adjournment of both houses of parliament day after day are a matter of serious concern. The opposition seems to have run out of ideas and only focuses on rushing to the well of the house and shouting its lungs out. Both the ruling party and the opposition appear interested in running down the other in front of TV cameras. The presiding officers surprisingly appear to be quite helpless and keep pleading without any result. Since working of parliament is made possible with taxes, most of which are paid by ordinary salaried employees, therefore the principle of "No work-no pay" must be enforced on members of parliament also. The speaker should name the members, who hold the parliament to ransom and evict them in order to to carry out listed business. The government should also consider switching off the live display of proceedings so that members focus on work rather than playing to the gallery.
