Dakshin Dialogues 2023: Poor Treatment of Southern India: John Brittas

CPI(M) Rajya Sabha member John Brittas lashed out at the BJP government at the Centre for dividing the country into ED (Enforcement Directorate)-affected and ED-unaffected. He said that no one could trust the BJP.

“How can we trust you? Can you ever imagine Parliament’s agenda being finalised in a secretive manner? Do we have to go to the Parliament House to know the supplementary agenda? Is opposition Pakistan to you,” he asked.

On 7 October, South First held the second edition of Dakshin Dialogues 2023. This year warranted a discussion on delimitation and the concerns of the South.

The panellists included the Karnataka Planning Board VC MV Rajeev Gowda, Justice (Retd) Jasti Chelameswar, BJP National Executive member Khushbu Sundar, and Rajya Sabha MP John Brittas. The session was moderated by the author of South vs North Nilankantan RS.
