The Story in Brief
Well-meaning citizens trying to bring entities such as the National Stock Exchange, Delhi’s power distribution companies, Indraprastha Gas, and Mother Dairy under legal scrutiny have encountered sustained resistance. These efforts, aimed at making the entities accountable under existing laws, have been met with stiff opposition from the organisations themselves.
The campaign to enforce legal compliance on these bodies, which provide essential services like electricity, gas, and milk in Delhi, continues despite the pushback. The source did not specify which laws are at issue, but the phrase “laws lost in resolution” suggests that corporate or government resolutions may have weakened legal protections.
The Indian Opinion
The narrative that public utilities and market giants are beyond the reach of ordinary laws is convenient for those who benefit from opacity. But the real test is not whether citizens’ efforts face opposition, it is whether the government will clarify the legal status of entities like Mother Dairy and DISCOMs. Why should a milk supplier or a gas distributor be shielded from the same scrutiny that applies to other public services?
