Tharoor emphasized that good governance has been missing in the country for the past seven years since the BJP-led National Democratic Assembly (NDA) came to power in the center and said, “My big problem with this government is that there is no good governance for 52 weeks of the year. So the Having good judgment for just one week may not be enough. They (NDA) need to work together and serve all year round and not just once”
Continuing his attack, Tharoor said, “The problem with this government is that all of these (Good Governance Week) are gestures, symbolic politics, and slogan politics. What you need to see is the core of good governance, which has been missing. All we have is the politics of slogans and symbolism. “.
