  1. A whip is issued by the party whenever there is a voting in the parliament. This is the instruction for its members in the parliament to vote in a particular way. eg. In the recent no-confidence voting,  parties issued whips to vote against or in- agreement with the motion.


  2. whip-fatwa-party leaders order is one and the same thing.you cannotvote as per your wish-conscious or thinking. whether you like it or not you will have to follow the dictate

  3. This is a simply a order by a party president or chair person ,for his all the members  to follow that blindly in the party favour. Like RAAJAGYA or FATWA.

  4. Whip is a role in party-based politics whose primary purpose is to ensure control of the formal decision-making process in a parliamentary legislature. Whips are party 'enforcers', who typically offer both inducements and punishments to party members. In modern times, most whips are concerned primarily with ensuring a desired attendance for an important vote.

    Because legislatures typically only require a majority of the quorum in attendance, a majority party can be outvoted if a large number of its legislators are absent and the opposition is in full attendance. An important part of a government whip's job is to ensure that this situation never arises; sufficient majority legislators must keep party attendance close enough to equality that the majority is slim, and the quorum cannot be busted by the departure of the majority legislators, this is difficult and can be exploited by the opposition to harass the majority.

    Whip is also used to mean:

    the voting instructions issued to members by the Whip, or

    in Britain, a party's endorsement of a member of parliament; to 'withdraw the whip' is to expel an MP from his political party. (The elected member in question would retain his or her seat.)

    Single Line Whip

    A guide to what the party's policy would indicate, and notification of when the vote is expected to take place; this is non-binding for attendance or voting

    Two Line Whip

    An instruction to attend and vote in a particular way, but without sanction; partially binding for voting, attendance required unless prior permission given by the Whip (sometimes known as double line whip).

    Three Line Whip

    A strict instruction to attend and vote in a particular way, breach of which could have serious consequences; binding for both attendance and voting. Non-attendance permission can be given by the Whip, but a serious reason is needed. Breach of a three-line whip can lead to expulsion from the parliamentary political group in extreme circumstances, and may lead to expulsion from the party. Consequently, three-line whips are generally only issued on key issues, such as votes of confidence and supply. The nature of three line whips and the potential punishments for revolt varies dramatically among parties and legislatures.
