Yeah, the bill was mainly about this amendment. Like I said, these things will go away once the law of the land is reformed. In the meantime its more business for kappalandi and popcorn.

Mostly agree. BTW Kamalanathan is 77 y/o, he has few further prospects in MP, his political career is nearly over and he is probably sensing the possibility of defeat in Chhindwara in LS 2024. My guess is he is mainly pushing for Nakulan, with himself as some sort of bonus.
