Rahul Gandhi critiques lack of real power for elected representatives

Rahul Gandhi critiques lack of real power for elected representatives

Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, spoke about how various groups, like Dalits, are given representation in India’s power structure but are not truly included in decision-making. He explained that simply having people from different castes on stage doesn’t matter if they don`t have a say in the decisions being made behind the scenes. He pointed out that while Prime Minister Modi often talks about giving tickets to people from different communities, he has taken away the real power from elected representatives like MLAs and MPs. Even ministers are controlled by outside forces, such as the RSS, and don’t have real decision-making power. The issue, according to Gandhi, is about control and real participation in governance....

Budget 2025: Here's why Budget is presented on February 1 | Explained

The Union Budget for 2025 will be presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on February 1. The Budget is a key event for the common man, as it impacts their daily life. In the past, the Budget was traditionally presented on the last working day of February. However, the current government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, changed this practice and moved the date to February 1. This shift was made to allow more time for the implementation of the proposed policies and decisions before the new financial year begins on April 1. By presenting it earlier, the government aims to give businesses, investors, and government departments enough time to plan and prepare for the upcoming financial year.
