New Delhi: During the assembly elections, many political parties including the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) had made many free announcements to woo the people. However, along with the BJP in power at the Center, the bureaucrats also feel that it is wrong to do so. In the meeting with PM Modi, the bureaucrats expressed concern over the schemes and said that the free announcements are not economically viable. The bureaucrats said that these things can take the country on the way to Sri Lanka. However, it is not clear which plans the bureaucrats were referring to. According to the report, PM Narendra Modi had an important meeting with senior bureaucrats on Sunday.
PM Modi held a four-hour long meeting with secretaries of all departments at his camp office at 7, Lok Kalyan Marg. National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval, PM's Principal Secretary PK Mishra and Cabinet Secretary Rajiv Gauba as well as many other top bureaucrats of the Central Government were also present in the meeting. The two secretaries referred to a populist scheme announced in the recent assembly elections in a state which is in financially poor shape. Referring to the announcement of similar schemes in other states, he said that these states are not economically viable. Such promises can lead the states on the way to Sri Lanka. It is believed that the indication of the secretaries was about the free electricity by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and giving 1000 rupees per month to every woman. Let us tell you, AAP had also made many promises of freebies in Punjab at the time of elections, then after forming the government, CM Bhagwant Mann had said that Punjab has a lot of debt, so they want 1 lakh crore rupees from the central government in 2 years. .
It is noteworthy that Sri Lanka is currently facing the worst economic crisis in history. People have to stand in long queues for fuel, cooking gas. The supply of essential commodities is short. Also people are upset for many days due to prolonged power cut. Earlier, during the meeting, Modi had told the bureaucrats that the way secretaries worked together as a team during the Corona epidemic, they should work in the same way. They should act as Secretaries to the Government of India and not just as in-charge of a department. He also directed the secretaries to give suggestions and give feedback on the shortcomings in the policies of the government.
