It looks like our parliamentarians are becoming really creative.

May you live in interesting times. This expression certainly seems apt for both houses of the Parliament. While the Rajya Sabha is dealing with the phenomenon called Subramanian Swamy, with his every utterance bringing Congress members rushing to the well, the Lok Sabha saw a show of satire from AAP MP Bhagwant Mann who recited a poem about Narendra Modi's government which looked to mock ‘Acche Din’.
Targeting the Modi government over various issues raked up by the media, like the intolerance debate, jewellers’ strike, alleged fear of minorities, black money, Vijay Mallya and Modi’s meeting with Nawaz Sharif, the poem is a hilarious take which makes for much better viewing than the ruckus that parliamentary debates usually end up in.
