Bizarre Law!

DGP Bhupinder Singh has been fined Rs.1000.0 only by the speaker for taking snaps with his mobile phone inside assembly house. Quantum of punishment has, however, failed to satisfy the opposition. They demand more stringent punishment permissible under law. But what’s interesting, the law itself seems bizarre to a common man. If electronic media can take photographs and display the ugly free-for-all actions in Bihar assembly very recently and for that matter in any other assembly if required, what’s the harm in taking snaps with mobile phone camera inside assembly when it’s in session? If every tidbits of proceedings in Lok Sabha can be live telecast, what stands in the way of what DGP has done? But still it is a cognizable offence. So queer is our law!
