I am just not finding the time to keep track of events, and have not managed to update the top performers in the Lok Sabha. There are so many issues out there – the SC notice to the government on 377, the hooch deaths in Gujarat [88 of them], and that poor medical officer who got bashed up for trying to smell out the rats in the Sports Authority of India office in Patiala [I think?]. Anyway, I am feeling very pessimistic about the future of this blog, considering that the Huffington Post  tops my reading list at the moment. Anyways, will keep you posted!

The National Informatics Commission is doing a very good job of getting information out there on the goings-on in various government institutions. A glance at the website of the Lok Sabha makes this pretty clear.

I have always wondered about what exactly happens in the Question Hour. This link here was just the right place to start on this quest and provided a wealth of information. Will provide an update tomorrow on the most active MPs in the Parliament when it comes to participating in the Question Hour.
