Government is open to civil society scrutiny but will not sit idly by and allow lies to be spread by organisations that claim to be apolitical but are partisan, Vice President Bharat Jagdeo has said.
A day after the government’s persecution of civil society groups was raised by PNCR Leader Aubrey Norton during a meeting with visiting United States Deputy Assistant Secretary (DAS) for Caribbean Affairs and Haiti Barbara Feinstein, Jagdeo on Friday said that he rejected the positions simply because they are false.
