The delay in the appointment of Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) appears to show that the government has no succession plan or proper personal planning, he said, adding that a number of high level posts are lying in both the executive and the judiciary.
Early appointment of the next Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), giving exemption to Tamil Nadu students from NEET examinations and higher investments in Assam were some of the key demands made in the Rajya Sabha on Thursday during the motion of thanks to President's Address.
Continuing the motion of thanks to the President's address in the Upper House, RJD leader AD Singh said, "I would like to pay tribute to Late General Bipin Rawat, our first CDS. But I am disappointed that such a sensitive post has been lying vacant since the tragic accident. I would urge the government to find his successor."
The delay in the appointment of CDS appears to show that the government has no succession plan or proper personal planning, he said, adding that a number of high level posts are lying in both the executive and the judiciary.
Mr Singh said while the President's Address listed out the achievements of the Modi government, this success will be even better if accompanied by social cohesion and unity.
