New Delhi, 25 June 2021

As per news report of The Indian Express, The meeting, of course, was very good. In the sense that there was no time limit. I was the first speaker. And I raised the issue that the government should have circulated the agenda so that we would have come prepared for that subject. The government responded, saying you can speak freely…meeting has an open agenda…Many of us pointed out that such a meeting should have been held last year… The Prime Minister said, ‘Yes, I was equally keen to meet all of you but because of Covid restrictions… it was not possible to meet so many people together’.
