New Delhi:
Congress president Sonia Gandhi speaks in Lok Sabha, attacks government over vacancies in constitutional posts.
Here are the highlights from her speech in the house:- PM made many promises to the people on transparency and good governance.
- In a blatant u-turn, his government, through the absence of a CIC has made sure that the highest offices are not accountable under the RTI Act.
- Information delayed is information denied. This is simply not acceptable.
- Government has shown a deplorable lack of interest in punishing people responsible for delays in public services.
- Government is setting out to systematically subvert the functioning of the RTI Act.
