This is the remaining part of the video that SM warriors won’t show you, glad that Rajpal Yadav tweeted about it.
Saurabh Dwivedi: “Rajpal bhai, it’s so good to have you back. You are an incredible actor. Please give a big round of applause for the one and only Rajpal Yadav.”
The MLA’s statement is wrong. And frankly, not surprising.
First, it exposes their priorities. At a time when real issues of the state demand attention, raising something like this in the Assembly is itself telling.
And if the Speaker chooses to act on it, it diminishes the dignity of the Vidhan Soudha itself.
Now, let’s ask the basic question.
Why should the KSCA, or any sports body, give free tickets to MLAs?
Why should they “owe” them anything?
This is plain entitlement. Feudal thinking.
An MLA demanding free tickets, a separate gallery, and refusing to sit with the public reveals their belief that they are somehow above the very people they represent.
That is the problem.
If citizens have to buy tickets, so should MLAs. Simple.
Unless we call this out clearly, we will keep normalising a culture of entitlement. And that is the opposite of what a modern, equal, democratic society should stand for.
This is wrong. It must be opposed.
