New Delhi: BJP leader Arun Jaitley is addressing a session of the Confederation of Indian Industry or CII in New Delhi. Here are the highlights of Mr Jaitley's speech:
- Being the opposition, we are invited only to the closing session
- You rightly mentioned that this is the third time in a row that I am here
- I think when a member of my party inaugurates this conference, yours questions will be more dilute
- I have never really doubted the PM's ability. It's relieving to know that at least he knew what was going wrong
- The model of the present government is faulty
- The leader of the elected party must have the ability to take decisions, he should have the authority to over-rule
- The leader must always have the last word
- If he can't do that and has to listen to others, then it becomes a three-legged race
- The telecom sector during the NDA regime was one of the biggest successes
- There is genuine worry regarding the direction in which we are headed
- I think as long as the economic management of the country is concerned - there is no scope for ideological differences
- What is the roadmap for achieving 9% growth
- Someone must answer why Rs 7500 cr were blocked because ministers can't see eye to eye?
- Reforms is the art of the possible - some are more challenging but some are more achievable
- Even if you did not have enough seats, you could make use of the coercive structure of the state to ensure support
- The vulnerable are always pliable. The Bengal ally was vulnerable when it came to the CBI but the two UP parties are
- There should be an environment where institutions are not used against each other
- People must be able to sit down despite difference and work for development
- We must be seriously concerned about the credibility of governance
- You should never give the impression of being a soft state when it comes to security
- It should only address our national sovereignty. It should not be compromised upon for votes
