Any attempt to repeal or fundamentally alter MGNREGA without the consent and participation of workers and their organisations is unacceptable. NSM rejects the VB-G RAM G Bill, 2025 and demands its immediate withdrawal!

Despite 10 years of funding, #SmartCityMission has been limited to surface-level fixes on aging infrastructure.
The mission has delivered temporary solutions that lack a forward-thinking approach in strategies.

For over a decade, the NSAP budget has been systematically undermined.

Anirban Bhattacharya @BanOrAnir of Centre for Financial Accountability presents the case on “WB: Promoter of Wealth Inequality” in the session on “Undermining the public sphere, people’s rights and democracy” at Independent People’s Tribunal at Kolkata on the 80th anniversary of @WorldBank and Bretton Woods institutions, December 7th & 8th.
"The WB's vision: the resource pool as a cake for redistribution. In reality, the marginalized get crumbs while the rich take the lion's share.
Debt distress in the Global South is fueled by austerity measures promoted by the WB. Their climate crisis narrative? Another result of their policies.
India: Two realities. 70 lakh live like the First World, but 70 crore can't afford basic needs like shoes or bicycles.
The WB and IFIs are shifting focus from real issues to divisive narratives, claiming minority communities take away from the majority.
Charge 1 against the WB: Denial of public services and welfare. Since the '90s, private healthcare has been prioritized, harming public health. #HealthInequality"
Charge 2: The WB promotes inequality and wealth concentration, benefiting the few at the expense of the many. #EconomicInequality"
Charge 3: The trickle-down doctrine is a sham. Growth without real benefits; malnourished and anemic children are on the rise.”

Raj Shekhar @ShekharnotSekar of Right to Food Campaign @rozi_roti presents the case on “Food Insecurity” in the session on “Undermining the public sphere, people’s rights and democracy” at Independent People’s Tribunal at Kolkata on the 80th anniversary of @WorldBank and Bretton Woods institutions, December 7th & 8th.
"WB is promoting schemes such as fortification of rice. This has proved detrimental to food security and health in the countries where this has been applied. The Indian govt has still not backtracked from this scheme even in fron of mounting criticisms.
We need to ensure that the benefit of agriculture goes to the producers, and everyone gets fair wages for work."

🧮 Social Security Budget: A Forgotten Footnote
✍@asmi_26 & @nancy_pathak for @thewire_in
