The Home Minister has claimed that “nearly 90% of the promises in the ruling party’s manifesto stand fulfilled (Inside pages, January 8). Appropriately, the claim comes just days after a masked mob wreaked havoc on university campus in the capital and on the same day a Central Ministry, the Statistics Ministry, lowered the current year’s GDP growth. That gives us a fair idea of what things could be like when the manifesto promises are fulfilled 100%.
