    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, you are a medical doctor; a profession called the learned profession, very respectable and noble profession. However, in the profession that Sen. Wako is in, which I am too junior even to brush his shoes – if there is something like that – there is something called “taking judicial notice”. I only wanted you to take judicial notice that a man who has not been in this House for so many days could raise issues related to quorum only once when he has a chance to be here, but that was a by the way. However, I wanted to raise a more fundamental issue. We were consulting on a very serious issue. I saw Sen. Sang come in. If there are ways of carrying the debate forward, I am willing and ready to proceed with the business on Order No.14. I had given a chance to other hon. Senators to continue contributing. I had not realised that it is time to reply. I seek your indulgence, if there is no other hon. Senator who wants to contribute to the business at Order No.14; you have the residual powers which rest on that very powerful seat which I must emphasize for the sake of the nation. The country is watching that you are using those powers in the right manner. You can exercise powers vested upon you by Standing Order No.1 to reverse your past decision in the interest of the House and for purposes of carrying forward the business of the House so that we can conclude Order No.14. I am ready to reply if there is no other Member."
