Is it the government of the people or the government of the corporates ?

The government has rescued Vodafone Idea through a relief package. In the name of “Telecom Reforms”, the government has postponed payment of Rs.1.31 lakh crores, for four years. This amount is to be paid by Airtel, Vodafone Idea and Jio. This is against the order of the Supreme Court of India. The Supreme Court had already rejected the prayer of the private telecom companies, to postpone this payment. Thus, the government is going to the extent of by-passing the Supreme Court order, to help the private telecom companies. 

However, the same government is not allowing BSNL to launch it’s 4G service. Further, the government has also decided to sell out 14,197 mobile towers of BSNL and MTNL. The government has taken these steps only to weaken BSNL. Naturally, the question arises, as to whose government is this? Is it the government of the corporates or the government of the people?
