So why is it any different from Parliamentarians? What gives them the right not to turn up to work? After all we &#8211; the tax payer &#8211;  are paying them well, and  on time, and with full benefits. So if they don&#8217;t turn up shouldn&#8217;t they not be paid, and then if their behaviour continues, shouldn&#8217;t they be sacked?  Let&#8217;s please start with Mr.Govinda &#8211; missing Parliamentarian from the constituency nextdoor. The next is Mr.Dharmendra &#8211; who by his own wife&#8217;s accord does not belong in Parliament. And then let&#8217;s start working our way down the BJP ranks &#8211; no work no pay and the sack.
