Indian opposition leader 'bugged'
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/4596504.stm

India's main opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has accused the government of tapping the phones of its former leader LK Advani.
A spokesman said tapping took place as the opposition attacked the government after a scandal over the Iraqi oil-for-food scheme broke last year.

The claim follows similar allegations by politicians including a top official of the regional Samajwadi party.

The Congress-led government has denied any wrong doing.

3. Bonzo's actually friendlier with BJP
their friends knock down mosques. It could be a corruption investigation, like those fired MPs, or just lingering Indira-ism in Congress
