Today, the Supreme Court could conclude an expert panel to modulate freebies that are announced by political parties. SC, with a bench of RV Ramana, does not approve of claims such as free electricity for citizens, as it creates an economic strain upon the govt and disagrees with parties like AAP and DMK comparing freebies with welfare schemes for the needy. The current bench reasoned them to provide the means of arranging such capital. AAP, in opposition, commented that courts do not have the right to interfere in govt policy decisions on the basis of freedom of speech.
