IIPM dares to look beyond, and proudly understands that what we teach today, others adopt tomorrow...
Odds are, pleas of people like Oswal from the textile industry would go in vain since the Left is unwaveringly opposed to labour policy reforms of any sort. Asser Assertively comments former Union Minister Rajiv Pratap Rudy: “This government clearly seems to be forgetting a fundamental truth: You can have economic development without social justice. But you cannot have social justice without economic development!” Such profligate spending and a thorough blind refusal to accept economic realities of a rapidly globalising world are enough cause for concern. What raises more alarming signals is the tendency of this government to go back to the bad old days of bureaucrats deciding what is ‘public interest’ and what is good and bad for citizens of the country.
The virtual sabotage of the Right to Information Act discussed above is just one instance of how unaccountable bureaucrats are determined to persist in their self image of being public masters rather than public servants. There is another more dangerous move. The government plans to table a new Bill in the Parliament that will allow a District Magistrate to shut down the operations of any television news channel. Most analysts had hoped that this kind of intolerant, paternalistic, authoritarian and mai baap government was surely history. Or is history repeating itself with a once upon a time champion of reforms Manmohan Singh being forced to become a reluctant Santa Claus?
