Single brand retail FDI policy a flop, only one applicant so far -
Financial Express
Slowdown in government’s policy initiatives and the corresponding weak market response is evident from the fact that despite allowing upto 100% foreign direct investment (FDI) in single brand retail, so far only one applicant wants to avail the benefit. Also, no decision has been taken by the government on allowing 49% FDI in Indian carriers by foreign airlines while there is no forward movement on increasing FDI in defence from 26% to 49% or allowing FDI in multi-brand retail.

Verbatim |
 Nothing epitomises Congress's oligarchic culture, hinging on a power cabal that centres in a ‘High Command', than disgraced former Union Minister for Law and Justice Ashwani Kumar's parting statement in his own defence while demitting office. “Whatever the PM and the party High Command thought fit, as a loyal foot soldier, I have done, and I am proud of the fact that I have been a loyal foot soldier of the party”. There is no word about his loyalty to the nation, which, for patriotic Indians, should have precedence over party, Prime Minister and high command. But not in the Congress's scheme of things, which, in the final reckoning, is a matter of perpetuating the Nehru-Gandhi family's hegemony.

K Balakrishnan, LensOnNews
