With reference to T C A Srinivasa-Raghavan’s column, “The wrong Lego set” (January 7), I am comforted that there is still someone in the media, who can speak the truth without fearing the loss of his constituency. He has cogently brought out the evolution of policymaking in India.

If the gaps are not plugged, the democratic system of governance will suffer.
