Electoral bonds
The government of the day has been reaping a rich harvest in the form of electoral bonds, with a lion’s share of the donations said to be flooding its coffers. In such a situation, it would be loath to make room for more transparency in the scheme as that could result in donors shying away from investing in the bonds. Unless the top court steps in and recommends changes in the Electoral Bonds Scheme, it would be futile to expect the government to tweak the scheme even a wee bit.
