Opp: India needs a truthful govt
A joint statement released by 21 Opposition parties after a meeting in New Delhi said, “We, the leaders of secular parties, met this afternoon in New Delhi. We reaffirmed our strong and steadfast resolve to confront and defeat the forces that are subverting our Constitution and making a mockery of our democracy.
India needs a government that cares for working class, kisans and khet mazdoors and is always sensitive to the enormous pain that they and their families are going through.
India needs a government that makes education accessible and affordable to all sections of the people and fulfills the aspirations of youth for decent and secure jobs that provide fair wages to the employed.
India needs a government that empowers the weaker sections of society— scheduled castes, scheduled tribes, OBCs, women and minorities— to lead a life of complete security and dignity. India needs a truthful government that does not propagate falsehoods and does not make bogus claims, that steadfastly follows Constitutional values and conventions in letter and spirit, that respects the autonomy of institutions, and that will banish the current allpervasive atmosphere of fear and intimidation.
A case in point is the sinister attack on autonomy of Reserve Bank of India by Modi government that has led to the unceremonious exit of RBI Governor today.
We deprecate the systematic attack by the government on India’s Economy through a select band of government nominees arbitrarily dictating the Monitory Policies and compromising Reserve Bank of India’s institutional integrity.
India needs a government that is committed to faster economic growth which is socially inclusive and environmentally sustainable and growth that does not sharpen inequalities...”
