It was most instructive to listen to lawyer Prashant Bhushan at the
Oxford Union Forum on the sins & horrors of the MODI government.
The Oxford Union is rightly famous for hosting a range of high quality
debates.
India claims to have some hundreds of so called Universities but what
sort of research do they conduct there, if any?
And do they engage in public discourse of any kind?
Here are some of the points made by Mr Bhushan :
- Modi has brought havoc to the country
- he has wrecked the economy with thoughtless policies like
demonetisation
- he has destroyed over 10 million jobs in just one year
- he has destroyed all institutions that are meant to find out the facts
and tells us to rely on propaganda
- he has taken control of large sections of he media through
inducements & threats and turned them into instruments of propaganda.
- Modi stated without evidence that ancient India had developed plastic
surgery and Ganesha's elephant trunk is a fine example
- Modi has abandoned reason and critical thinking
