Democracy in India is a global public good and a central anchor for the planet and if that cracks, it is going to cause a problem for the planet, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has warned as he attacked the National Democtratic Alliance (NDA) government, asserting that there are two different designs of governance at play in India, one that stifles voices and the other that listens.
The Opposition leader, who is on a tour of the U.K., had an interaction session at the 'Ideas for India' conference organised by non-profit think-tank Bridge India on May 20 during which he articulated his party’s vision for mass action that would result in something “beautiful” for the country.
He attacked the “deep state” that is causing damage and declared that the Congress ideology is geared up to fight it. “Please realise, what the BJP does is shout and stifle voices. What we do is listen. They are two different things, they are two different designs,” said Mr. Gandhi.
