The Manmohan Singh government proved the majority as the House of the People went to voting on the Confidence motion moved by the PM himself. Earlier, the Left parties had withdrawn support for the UPA government over the Issue.
Now, it is likely that the Government will complete its tenure ans comfortably passes the nuclear deal with United States of America.
Total votes:
FOR UPA--------->275
AGAINST UPA----->256
ABSTAINED------->10
Halfway mark:271
A comfortable win! However, the Government now has to respond to the allegations raised by 3 BJP members regarding bribe of order 10 crores been offered for trust votes.
