@mohandastg did an entire show on @pGurus1 to downplay sins of his master Swαmy in 1999, where he brought down Gov of Yugpurush Shri Vajpayee ji.
A GSB frm Kerala, I hope he is well versed in Hindi

My reply #Thread https://swarajyamag.com/politics/how-vajpayee-government-was-defeated-by-a-single-vote-in-1999
Mohandas brings an interesting angle saying it was Giridhar Gamang who was then Odisha CM, and still a LS MP, walked to the Parliament & voted against government & his vote led to the fall of Vajpayee Gov
Or else it could hav been 269 each

Let's see how Mohandas is lying here
Pranab da dedicated an entire Chapter on the 1999 fiasco whr he explained that as a Congress Candidate, he was bound to vote against the gov due to 'Anti defection law'
Gamang said, he was finally free frm humiliation which he faced for 20 yrs of his life & now a relieved man
In the same article, Gamang says it was not his vote but Saifuddin Soz's vote, where he went against his party National Conference and he voted against the Gov. In 1999, he was expelled by Abdulla for voting against the BJP Gov.

But let's see how Mohandas is shielding his master
That last vote is immaterial whether it was Saifuddin Soz or Giridhar Gamang. Subramanian Swamy was responsible to turn 24 votes against the Gov.

Remember the famous tea party with Bhabhi & Devar 😉

Whr #MandavliMama struck a deal btwn Sonia & JJ, where AIADMK had 18 MPs in LS.
Mayawati with 5 Lok Sabha MP had promised to vote in favour of Vajpayee Gov but Swamy & Jayalalitha convinced her to vote against the Gov. This BJP wasn't expecting. Subramanian Swamy called the trio of Sonia, JJ & Mayawati as Durga, Lakshmi, Saraswati 👇🏼

https://m.rediff.com/news/1999/apr/17swamy.htm
Now 18 of AIADMK & 5 of BSP=23
But as I said Swamy was responsible for 24 votes against Gov, so who was the 24th one☹️

Yes, it was Subramanian Swamy himself who voted against, he faced Kukarma for his sins, lost deposit in 1999 & 2004, never won any Lok Sabha election after that
Now Mohandas adds some 2 names, Ram Vilas Paswan who resigned frm NDA in 2002 after Godhra & Smriti Irani who spoke against then Guj CM & today both r Ministers in Modi Gov

In politics there is something called as ethics & party lines which Paswan, Smriti, Gamang follow but👇🏼🤷🏻‍♂️
Does Giridhar Gamang regrets his vote, yes
Was he compelled to vote, yes

But here is a man taking credit for bringing down gov & he never regretted. He never wrote single condolence msg for Vajpayee even 2yrs after his passing
