Meet Tathagata Satpathy . He is an elected Member of Parliament from Dhenkanal in Odisha and he recently confessed to smoking marijuana . Wait, there’s more. He also gave pointers on how to score weed *legally*.Satpathy, who is also BJD’s chief whip in Parliament, conducted a Reddit AMA aka ‘ Ask Me Anything ’ on March 15 and became internet’s new favourite neta.He talked about everything from Pink Floyd to the Land Acquisition act. Dear parliamentarians, please take notes.“At the outset, I would like to tell you why I am doing this AMA. This young man /u/kumbhakaran (I wonder why but he prefers not to be named) who works with me and helps me with my legislative work requested me to do this. I agreed.After hearing about this AMA format of interaction, I thought it would be a good way to know what people think of the present situation in India. Your questions might be a link to finding solutions to issues that are uppermost in the minds of people of a certain creed.Being selfish, I would like to use these inputs sometime in Parliament. I am not sure how this could help improve the overall situation (or solve problems) but Reddit could prove to be an alternative communication channel for me. I am not on Twitter or Facebook. I like the anonymity that Reddit offers. Therefore I have dared to do this AMA here.”Satpathy followed in the footsteps of Ashwin Mahesh of Karnataka's Lok Satta Party, who was the first politician to hold an AMA in April 2013.
