Acche din yet to come, says former SC Judge Hegde

“I won’t say they have delivered. As compared to the previous government, shade of corruption I don’t see. So far as Prime Minister is concerned, he has made lot of efforts but ‘Achhe Din Abhi Tak Aaye Nahin’,” said Hegde, on his assessment of the performance of the Modi government, which completed two years in office recently.

But the former Solicitor General of India said he was impressed by Modi’s address to US Congress earlier this month. “Relationship with foreign countries has developed very much. It’s a change from the earlier political dispensation,” he said.

On BJP’s promise to bring back black money stashed abroad, he said, “They must bring it back. I really, really don’t understand what’s the hurdle they have. They should tell the people what’s it that they have done about it.”
