AS PRIME Minister Narendra Modi chaired NITI Aayog’s 10th Governing Council meeting on Saturday, the Congress said it was “yet another attempt at hypocrisy and diversion”.
Congress communications in-charge Jairam Ramesh said, “Today, the Governing Council of NITI Aayog is meeting under the chairmanship of the Prime Minister. It has been said that the progress of the so-called ‘Viksit Bharat’ goal will be reviewed in this… What kind of developed India will it be when the people in power are busy destroying the fabric of social harmony through their own words and actions?”
“What kind of developed India will it be when the autonomy of Parliament, judiciary, universities, media and constitutional institutions is being crushed as per the convenience of those in power?” asked Ramesh.
“What kind of developed India will it be if the values and ideals for which India is known are being systematically attacked in front of international forums?”
“What kind of developed India will it be when economic inequality in the country is constantly increasing and wealth is getting concentrated in the hands of a select few,” he asked.
