Via India Uncut, we learn of a sting operation on Indian MPs taking bribes for questions on the floor of the parliament.
As politicians scurry to condemn the guilty and express high-minded platitudes, they remind us of Captain Renault in Casablanca: I'm shocked, shocked that gambling is going on in here!!!

Yesterday France, then Bangladesh. Today Australia. Tomorrow India?
I am worried!!!
In all this mess, a stellar job by Aaj Tak and Cobrapost.
