It is really funny how an article by an IAS officer gets an immediate response from the government (“IAS officer gets notice for views on toilet drive”, April 13). We don’t see such quick action on any affirmative issue. Our concept of democracy and freedom of speech need to be looked at again. Why can’t an officer question the efficacy of a programme? Is that really such a big crime that she would be served a show-cause notice? The government would do well to clear the doubts raised.
