Oppn accuses BJP of polarising, creating “fear psychosis”

NEW DELHI: The opposition in the Rajya Sabha today accused the BJP-led Government of polarising the country and creating a “fear psychosis” among the people, alleging that it was just renaming the earlier policies without delivering their benefits to the poor and the needy.

It is not a “game changer” but a “name changer Government” which has failed to deliver on all fronts be it providing relief to farmers and poor, generate jobs or addressng the Kashmir issue, it said.

Participating in the debate on the Motion of Thanks for the President’s address, Leader of Oppositon Ghulam Nabi Azad attacked the Government for creating fear, not only among people but also among the bureaucrats and opposition leaders.

“A fear pyschosis has set in. You cannot see when you are in power. If someone is scared to talk to the Opposition or transact with them, it is not good for democracy or freedom of speech or even freedom of business,” he said. (AGENCIES)
