IS THERE ANY LOBBYING TAKING PLACE FOR INCREASING FDI IN DEFENSE SECTOR?

There is a saying in Bengali; ‘JOR – JAR MULLUK TAR’, in English it is said, ‘THE MIGHT IS RIGHT’, the present Modi Govt. have adopted the  theory of 'Might is Right'.

Disrespecting the Supreme Court’s Collegium recommendation for appointing Judge for the Supreme Court and avoiding to hold fresh Delhi Assembly election is the outcome of the same theory of 'Might is Right'.

Coming in immediate conclusion to raise the FDI from 26% to 51%,  in the Defense Sector and without assessing the benefit for the national interest, the Modi Govt. have raised doubt to question, is there  any Lobbying taking place for increasing FDI in Defense sector?.

Increasing FDI in the Defense sector is complete national issue and the transparency is utmost required, but whereas, the Modi Govt. deliberately and wittingly have ignored the two Houses of the Parliament.

Let us recall that it was the same BJP, along with the other opponent political parties, have opposed tooth and nail on the issue of the FDI, in Retail and lastly the Congress had to drop the issue and it was also being heard and circulated that Walmart have made good attempt of lobbying to pass the said Bill. Nothing is impossible in India, regarding Govt. Policy making.

It is worth mentioning that the both the Houses of the Parliament have, earlier, endorsed the 26% FDI, in Defense sector, then how could the Modi Govt. did not discuss the matter in the Parliament and that too without taking the Members of Parliament, in confidence, which reflect the same theory of Might is Right.

Modi Govt. should come out from the false vanity for getting majority in the last Parliament election and should understand that the Govt. of India is not a private property of the BJP. Let us remind them that their numbers are too short in the Rajaya Sabha.

  1. How it matters when majority can be managed by extraneous considerations ? Very pathetic situation -- only God can save India. Probably he is kind enough in this regard that is why we have survived so far in spite of so much crooks around us.
