[bestbits] Re: [governance] Proposal by the Government of India to the WGEC

[Anja Kovacs]

The same questions, of whether it was a case of the left hand not knowing
what the right hand was doing, were raised earlier, when the CIRP proposal
was first made, and such questions seemed to be justified when the Minister
of Communications subsequently repeatedly confirmed his commitment to
multistakeholder models of governance, including at such high-profile
events as the Baku IGF. In other words, clearly communication gaps exist
within the Indian government. But to think that the same government would
make the same mistakes on the same issue twice is rather tragic, and
worrying, especially where the absence of consultation is concerned.

Best,
Anja
