Sonia Gandhi Attacks Government in Lok Sabha on Vacancies in Constitutional Posts: Highlights

New Delhi: Congress president Sonia Gandhi speaks in Lok Sabha, attacks government over vacancies in constitutional posts.

Here are the highlights from her speech in the house:

• PM made many promises to the people on transparency and good governance.
• In a blatant u-turn, his government, through the absence of a CIC has made sure that the highest offices are not accountable under the RTI Act.
• Information delayed is information denied. This is simply not acceptable.
• Government has shown a deplorable lack of interest in punishing people responsible for delays in public services.
• Government is setting out to systematically subvert the functioning of the RTI Act.
