“Prime Minister @narendramodi has blinked.” This is the ONLY way I can describe it. Pitched against the powerful forces of the MNCs and trans-national aid agencies, the Prime Minister of India – a huge market for all things has kowtowed to the global forces.
@narendramodi 2. An important Q: Why is it that @narendramodi could take what appeared as tough decision in his first term when @BJP4India and the NDA had less numbers? And, now with the right numbers, he is kowtowing to certain MNCs masquerading as aid agencies?
