New Delhi: The absence of a large number of UPA members during voting on President's address today prompted the Government to set in motion in Parliament a formal floor coordination mechanism with allies.
In a move that could lead to cracking the whip, Congress floor managers also announced that explanation will be sought from its members absent in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha during voting on President Address yesterday and today respectively.
Nearly 50 members of the UPA, about half of them from the Congress, were absent in the Lok Sabha yesterday and some half a dozen Congress members in the Rajya Sabha today despite a three-line whip issued by the ruling party.
Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal told reporters that he would be writing letters to the members who played truant and seek clarification as to why they were absent.
He said he would also seek details of members from the Upper House who were absent during the debate on the Lokpal bill.
The party leadership could take serious cognizance of the absence of MPs in view of the fact that a three-line whip asking members to be present during the voting was issued.
Several Union Ministers were also absent from the Lok Sabha yesterday during the voting including some from the allies.
Meanwhile, Sharad Pawar of the NCP and T R Baalu of the DMK were among leaders who attended the formal floor coordination meeting of the UPA convened by Bansal who said such meetings will take place on the mornings of Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
If need be consultations will be held on Monday and Friday too, he said.
Leader of Opposition Sushma Swaraj had alleged in the Lok Sabha that the numbers on the vote had exposed government's claim of majority.

Agent Vinod's Pungi song a copy?
By Hindustan Times
Just as the song Pungi Bajaa Kar from Saif Ali Khan's spy thriller Agent Vinod is gaining popularity, an Iranian music band has slapped a legal notice on music director Pritam Chakraborty and distributors for alleged copyright violation.
The music band Barobax Corp was founded in 2003 by three Iranian nationals Kashayar Haghgoo, Kevian Haghgoo and Hamid Farouzmand.
According to the legal notice issued by law firm Vidhii Partners, Barobax had on January 16, 2010 produced and released an album titled Soosan Khanoom which became a rage.
"On March 12 this year, the band came across the promotions of the movie Agent Vinod on satellite television in Iran. The song Pungi Baja De was being aired. On listening to the song, the band realised that the initial portion of the song is lifted without any change from the title song of their album," the notice claims.
According to the notice, the band is the owner of the copyright of the song Soosan Khanoom which is registered under the Copyright Act in Canada on June 30 last year and hence the music of the song cannot be used without the band's permission.
Soon after learning about the copyright infringement the band sent their representative Nargis Kazerooni to India to initiate legal action.
Apart from music director Pritam, the notice has also been served to Eros International Media, Illuminati Films Private Ltd and Super Cassettes Ltd.
"We demand the music director, producers and directors to refrain from releasing the song in the movie or use it to promote the movie. Failing to do so, the band shall be compelled to initiate proceedings to seek a restraining order and necessary compensation," the notice states.
The movie starring Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor is slated for release on March 23.
Twitter turns six
"just setting up my twttr" - when Jack Dorsey tweeted this on March 22, 2006, he couldn't have imagined that in six years, people across the world would be sending over 9420 tweets a second, as witnessed during Superbowl 2012.
Twitter was created by a 5-member team, working under the banner of a start-up called Obvious in San Francisco. In its short history, Twitter has become an important marketing tool for celebrities, politicians and businesses, promising a level of intimacy never before approached online, as well as giving the public the ability to speak directly to people and institutions once comfortably on a pedestal. It is now available in 28 different languages and employs over 835 people.
Its use as an organizing tool, first in Iran during the disputed presidential election of June 2009 to disseminate information in the face of a news media crackdown, brought it new respect. And it continues to engage the political audience with as many as 40,000 tweets in an hour referring to Rick Santorum in one of the recent Republican nomination debates.
With unofficial estimates putting the number of Twitter accounts at over 350 million, Twitter is part of an elite group of social web start-ups that have flourished in recent years by rapidly attracting users. It took 3 years, 2 months and 1 day to hit the first billion tweets. Now it takes less than a week to clock that many.
But while peers like Facebook and Zynga have aimed for the public markets, Twitter is holding back. In the summer of 2011, Twitter raised $400 million from private investors. The fund-raising effort, led by DST Global, the investment firm headed by the Russian billionaire Yuri Milner, valued the company at $8 billion. In December, Prince Walid bin Talal of Saudi Arabia announced he had taken a $300 million stake in the company, representing roughly 3 percent, this valuing the company at around $10 billion.
But in many ways the journey is just getting started for Twitter. Long ridiculed for not having a business model in place, the company started to experiment with promoted trends, tweets and accounts. Twitter announced an expansion to the program as recently as yesterday.
While its balance sheet shows little sign of improvement in the near term, there's no doubting Twitter will continue to play an important role in our lives in days to come.
