The government of India decision, on the eve of the 50th year of Indian Republic, to sell-off the national carrier, Indian Airlines, is against national interests, which will also impact the defence requirements of the country. The Indian Airlines, with over 65% of market share of domestic air travel, has made a turn-around, recording profit during the last three consecutive years. This shows the anxiety of the present BJP led NDA government to fulfill every requirement of international financial institutions and MNCs in post-haste.

Similarly, the government decision to hand over the Modern Food Industries (MFIL) to the multi-national, Hindustan Lever Limited is aimed at helping the MNC to take over the manufactured stapled food market in the country, after its complete grip over soap and cosmetics regments. The agreement concluded with the HLL amply testifies that the MFIL had been offered to them on a platter at throwaway prices.
