Recession is creeping in. The economy is going downhill. Yet, the Narendra Modi 2.0 government is skirting its accountability, hiding behind issues like hyper-nationalism. Even as Modi holds forth on his environmental concerns by focusing on the use of single use plastic, massive violations of the Forest Act and the environmental norms by corporates are being overlooked. Amid all this, there is a huge debate on the new traffic rules under which hefty penalties are being imposed. Well-known cartoonist, Irfan, gives his take on the issue.
