HW News Editorial with Sujit Nair Podcast

In a recent episode of 'Editorial', Mr. Sujit Nair delves into PM Modi's response to the recent Supreme Court verdict regarding the Electoral Bonds Scheme. Modi strongly dismissed any notion that the verdict posed a setback to his administration. ""Tell me what have we have done that I should see it as a setback? I firmly believe that those dancing over it (bond details) and taking pride in it are going to repent,"" the Prime Minister asserted in an interview with Thanthi TV. He emphasized that the Electoral Bond system has enabled the identification of sources and beneficiaries of political funding. According to Modi, the presence of electoral bonds has facilitated the establishment of a traceable trail in political funding. In the interview, Modi questioned whether anyone could specify the amount corporations contributed to political parties before the NDA government assumed power in 2014. ""Can someone tell me how much these companies paid to political parties before 2014? Nothing is perfect, imperfections can be addressed,"" the Prime Minister remarked. "
