NEW DELHI:The Congress on Thursday attacked the Modi Government after India slipped 10 ranks on the Democracy Index, saying democracy has been eroded and democratic institutions debilitated under the ‘tukde tukde gang’ in power, and this should alarm every Indian.
The party said the country has to be vigilant against “diminishing democracy” and it cannot afford to allow democracy to be diluted.
Senior party leader P Chidambaram said India has slipped 10 places in the index and “anyone who has closely observed the events of the last two years knows that democracy has been eroded and democratic institutions have been debilitated those who are in power are the real ‘tukde tukde’ gang”.
“The world is alarmed by the direction INDIA is taking. Every patriotic INDIAN should be alarmed too,” he said on Twitter. (AGENCIES)
