The questionnaire finalised for the survey does not include anything related to disability. Even the half-hearted attempt to capture disability-related data in the previous survey has been abandoned this time. And the excuse, by all counts, is inexplicable.
“Disability is decided on medical certification. Our surveyors are not doctors and they cannot be checking medical certificates. People could not even understand the questions properly,” a principal investigator of the NFHS told the Times of India. The NFHS technical advisory committee asked for the question to be dropped instead of ‘giving inaccurate data’.

The scepter is a symbol of feudalism. In democracy, the state is run by the will of the people. All decisions taken in Parliament express the will of the people. In such a way, what will be in line with the spirit of democracy to keep sengol in the hands of the president? The President's job in the Parliament is to keep the proceedings organized. Apart from that, there was no right in his hands. Keeping the 'scepter' near his seat is totally contrary to the spirit of democracy and anti-constitutional. It is the first recognized national symbol in India. Would the presence of the alleged scepter in the Parliament House not be disrespectful to the national emblem!
In the Tamil monarchy, whenever a new king took charge of the state, the royal priest would hand over the scepter to him. But it is the days when the monarchy was under the control of the Brahmins. There were shameless arrangements like 'Manusmriti' in the name of law. Is it not an affront to democracy to install the 'sceptre' in the Parliament House, which is the symbol of the will and consciousness of the Indian people? Is there any more power to the 'Raj' than the will of the people in a healthy democracy? This is also important because the Indian Constitution, which was made after the alleged Sengol meeting, also has no provision to adopt any symbol as a 'scepter'.

The latest NDTV-CSDS Survey of nine years of Modi’s rule at the Centre adds substance to this idea. There are various ways of reading the survey, but on Modi’s governance record, it presents a dismal picture. Twenty-seven per cent of those surveyed attributed Modi’s popularity to his oratory, and only 11 per cent to his policies. The 21 per cent who are ‘fully unsatisfied’ with his work outnumber the 17 per cent who are ‘fully satisfied’. On his handling of corruption, the 45 per cent who found it unsatisfactory are greater than the 41 per cent who think otherwise.
His government’s use of the CBI and the Enforcement Directorate has 31 per cent responding that it was a ‘tool for political vendetta’ against the 37 per cent saying it was ‘lawful’. On the economy, 42 per cent think their condition has not improved in the last nine years, and 22 per cent think it has worsened.
