cut motion in indian parliament: what is cut motion in parliament

Cut Motion in Parliament: Cut Motion is political term which is used in the parliament of India.

“cut motion” and “cut motion in indian parliament” are currently popular and hot search trends in google. People are searching for cut motion, cut motion in indian parliament and also some people want to know that what is cut motion

Cut motion is used for mainly three types of cut in the budget which are Economic cut, token cut, disapproval of policy cut.

Opposition has decided to move the motion cut in the Parliament against the UPA government. BSP / Bahujan Samaj Party has decided to support the UPA government in Cut Motion.

The United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government faces a cut motion in Parliament on Tuesday.

Why is it so important?

Cut motion is a veto power given to the member of the Loks Sabha to oppose a demand in the financial bill discussed by the government. This can turn into an effective tool to test the strength of the government. If a cut motion is adopted by the House and the government does not have the numbers, it is obliged to resign.

Cut motion: Mayawati bails out UPA

Cut motion can be of following types:-

(i) Disapproval of policy cut: Amount of the demand be reduced to Re 1. A member giving notice of such a motion shall indicate in precise terms the particulars of the policy which he proposes to discuss. The discussion shall be confined to the specific point or points mentioned in the notice and it shall be open to members to advocate an alternative policy

(ii) Economic cut: Calling for cuts in a taxation proposal.The notice shall indicate briefly and precisely the particular matter on which discussion is sought to be raised and speeches shall be confined to the discussion as to how economy can be effected.

(iii) Token cut: A small cut of, say, Rs 100, meant to be a rebuke for the government

Tuesday’s cut motion being moved to seek reduction in excise and customs duties on fuel prices.

However, the Speaker of the Lok Sabha enjoys the prerogative. Rule 211 authorises the Speaker to decide whether to admit a cut motion and Rule 210 empowers him to give 13 grounds for non-admissibility of a cut motion. The Speaker can reject a cut motion if it relates to more than one demand, it contains defamatory statements and it is a matter that does not concern the government.

13-party alliance divided on cut motion over price rise

Admissibility of cut motions

In order that notice of motion for reduction of the amount of demand may be admissible, it shall satisfy the following conditions, namely:-

It shall relate to one demand only;
It shall be clearly expressed and shall not contain arguments, inferences, ironical expressions, imputations, epithets or defamatory statements;
It shall be confined to one specific matter which shall be stated in precise terms;
It shall not make suggestions for the amendment or repeal of existing laws;
It shall not refer to a matter which is not primarily the concern of the Government of India;
It shall not relate to expenditure charged on the Consolidated Fund of India;
It shall not raise a question of privilege;
It shall not revive discussion on a matter which has been discussed in the same session and on which a decision has been taken;

Statute vs Convention:

Parliament convention: Cut motion never moved when demand for grants have been “guillotined”

What is Guillotine:

Demands for grants of ministries bunched together for assent of Lok Sabha

CPI leader Gurudas Dasgupta wants the Speaker to admit a cut motion despite a “guillotine”. Dasgupta has cited Article 113 (2) of the Constitution which entitles the House to move a cut motion.

New BlackBerry Pearl 3G 9100, 9105 launched by RIM

Posted: 27 Apr 2010 02:52 AM PDT


New BlackBerry Pearl 3G 9100, 9105 launched by RIM

Research in Motion declared Monday a compact pair of Pearls: the BlackBerry Pearl 3G 9100 and BlackBerry Pearl 9105 are the smallest BlackBerry handsets yet.

The BlackBerry smartphones were brought in at RIM’s 2010 Wireless Enterprise Symposium (WES) event in Orlando.

The new BlackBerry Pearl 3G models measure less than two inches wide and weigh 3.3 ounces each. They pack many of the same features found in RIM’s other 9000 series BlackBerry devices. Both feature a high-resolution 360 x 400 pixel display and a 624 Mhz processor with 256 MB Flash memory.

Mike Lazaridis, president and co-CEO of Research In Motion said that the Pearl 3G as being “unlike any other smartphone in the world,” and said, in a statement, that the device “allows consumers to upgrade their traditional mobile phone to a full-featured, easy-to-use and fashionable 3G BlackBerry smartphone that supports BlackBerry Messenger and many other apps while maintaining a handset design and layout that is familiar and comfortable.”

BlackBerry Pearl 3G 9100 and BlackBerry 9105 phones run on BlackBerry OS 5 and support tri-band UMTS/HSDPA and quad-band EDGE/GPRS/GSM networks. They are the first Blackberry smartphones to support Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and ‘n’.

Both BlackBerry handsets feature an optical trackpad for smooth navigation, as well as dedicated volume and media keys, a 3.2 MP camera with flash, and support for up to 32 GB of personal content.

Both BlackBerry smartphones share all features except for their keypad layouts. The BlackBerry 9100 model features a 20-key condensed QWERTY keyboard, while the BlackBerry 9105 model has a more traditional 14 key alphanumeric layout instead of RIM’s proprietary thumb-centric keypad design.

“The BlackBerry Pearl is very clearly aimed at the consumer market, [at] people who want the caché of the BlackBerry brand, said Charles Golvin principal analyst at Forrester Research. “RIM’s growth in the past two years has focused more on the consumer market than the enterprise market,” he said, adding that this is also evident in RIM’s advertising.

The two BlackBerry Pearl 3G models are powered by a 1150mAh battery that is rated for 5.5 hours of talk time on GSM/EDGE and HSDPA 3G networks.

RIM says the two devices – new BlackBerry Pearl 3G 9100, BlackBerry 9105 are expected to be available for purchase in May, though no carrier partners or pricing have been announced at this time.

The RIM company is yet to announce the pricing of the Pearl 3G smartphones.
