Guest guest Posted October 3, 2002 Report Share Posted October 3, 2002 Show them the door, says RSS chief New Delhi Oct. 2. The RSS today demanded the immediate removal of those at the helm of affairs who support a western model of development for the country, including free inflow of foreign direct investment (FDI). Without naming the BJP-led Government, the RSS chief, K.S. Sudarshan, said the economic policies being pursued ``at the behest of the World Trade Organisation and the International Monetary Fund" were ``urban-based, high energy consumptive, labour displacing and ecologically destructive.'' Addressing an intelligentsia meet here, the RSS ``sarsanghchalak'' held the present policies responsible for terrorism as they rendered people jobless. ``Countries such as Indonesia, Thailand and Korea which accepted the IMF diktats are today suffering. This is not our way. We should adopt the Gandhian concept of a village-centric economy. Those supporting foreign models of development, howsoever high posts they may be holding, should be removed forthwith,'' Mr. Sudarshan demanded. — PTI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
