Speaking to Citti Media, in a hard-hitting interview, Dr. Nanda Kishor ji argued rather strongly that the The Essential Defence Services Act is integral to the security of India. He further stated that the opposition has no moral authority to lecture the current government on what is good for national security and what is not. According to him, The Act will not only discipline our defence production mechanism, but also introduce efficiency with the involvement of private players.
The opposition are still hung over about the corporatisation of Ordnance Factory Boards, a process that had been initiated two decades ago by then Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji’s government.
