[Jayaprakash Narayan @JP_LOKSATTA]

Rule of law, basic amenities, infrastructure, quality education & healthcare are neglected. Our edu & health outcomes are appalling, imposing a huge burden on poor & middle classes, and perpetuating poverty. We need a law similar to FRBM Act, limiting consumption subsidies.2/2

[Jayaprakash Narayan @JP_LOKSATTA]

Sri Lanka's food & economic crisis is due to whimsical policies, reckless populism & fiscal profligacy. It is a cautionary tale for all poor nations. Many states in India are indulging in reckless short-term freebies for electoral gain, ignoring growth & core functions.1/2

[Foundation for Democratic Reforms @FDR_INDIA]

The essence of democracy lies in voters realising their self interest. The recent election results indicate that our democracy is maturing.
