The Union I & B Minister Prakash Javadekar in an event stated that philosophically and ideologically he would like the I&B Ministry to dissolve, as part of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's plank of "less government, more governance."
Javadekar was asked whether India needed an I&B Ministry when many major democracies do not have such a ministry.
"I think you are giving a good line for us. But ultimately, when our Prime Minister Narendra Modi says that more governance and less government, so you are actually contributing to the idea of less government and more governance. That's our focus, but to achieve that end you have to follow a process.
Javadekar said this in an interview to Karan Thapar on Headlines Today show ‘Nothing But The Truth’. He was responding to Thapar’s question if three or four years down the line, he would like to ensure that the I&B Ministry ceases to exist.
Interestingly, Javadekar’s predecessor Tewari had also said that he was all for disbanding the I&B Ministry since it belonged to a past era.
