With 70-96 million Indians facing rare diseases and sky-high treatment costs, will a 10% customs duty cut really make a difference? And adding 10,000 medical seats.
The AAP came to power promising that employees would never again have to sit on dharnas or surround the homes of elected representatives to get their voices heard. Four-and-a-half years later, employees and pensioners are protesting outside the residence of Punjab Assembly Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan, accusing the Government of breaking the very promises that brought it to power. This raises a bigger question: Has the AAP become the very establishment it once vowed to replace ? When even the Speaker's residence turns into a protest site, is it only the Government's credibility that is collapsing, or does it also expose the growing disconnect between those in power and the people they once claimed to represent ?
