Bihar Deputy Chief Minister, Tejashwi Yadav, criticized the Modi government, accusing them of selling off public sector undertakings and national wealth to big industrialists under the guise of reforms. He argued that this approach goes against the interests of the poor, farmers, and the country as a whole. Yadav called on the government to explain how selling national assets to a select few capitalists would benefit the people and the economy.
Yadav also raised concerns about the government’s long-term plan to end government jobs through privatization, which would ultimately impact reservation for disadvantaged groups in both government jobs and public undertakings. He highlighted the harm caused by the Modi government’s abolition of thousands of jobs in the railways and the introduction of schemes like Agniveer in the army.
Additionally, Yadav questioned the central government’s decision to sell trillions of national assets to selected private companies. He questioned why the government would sell off assets created through decades of hard work at throwaway prices, causing a loss to the country. Yadav called on the Modi government to explain their compulsion to sell national assets, suggesting that it reflects a failure of their policies and short-sightedness.
Yadav also criticized the Prime Minister for not mentioning the failures of schemes such as demonetization, Make in India, Startup India, Skill India, Standup India, and the government’s promise of creating two crore jobs per year. He questioned whether the Prime Minister is aware that these initiatives have failed due to a lack of proper planning.
