Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said that calling for discipline these days is termed as “autocratic”. He said this on Sunday after launching a book on the experiences of M Venkaiah Naidu during his first year as Vice President and Chairman of the Rajya Sabha.
PM Modi praised the Vice President for being a “disciplinarian”. He said, “Venkaiah ji is a disciplinarian, but our country’s situation is such that it has become easy to call discipline undemocratic. If someone calls for discipline, he is branded autocratic… the whole dictionary is opened. But the discipline Venkaiah ji calls for he himself follows it” – it was reported by NDTV.
The 245-page book is titled “Moving On, Moving Forward: A Year In Office”.
