Parliament comes in when moneys are appropriated. Parliament comes in when the public accounts committee reports on how these appropriations have been used, and when the public accounts committee considers this, there is no document that can be withheld from the public accounts committee. Sir, this short bill seeking to make certain amendments to the Indian (tariff) act with a view to granting protection to the power and distribution transformers industry and to continue or discontinue protection to certain other industries seems to suggest that it is not very much other than routine business. Sir, it is true that government come forward with amendments to the tariff act now and then and try to claim that they have come here to give protection to certain national industries. Sir, we all urge that the paramount necessity of our country is industrialisation, and therefore, any government action which might seek to improve the process of industrialisation in our country is commendable. There is no doubt about it. But it seems the Government has run out of options and has mentioned about propriety and tradition. Yet, I would say the economy is in a crisis that warrants a much bolder effort and it s truly difficult to get away from the feeling. The Interim exercise has turned out to be a wasted opportunity. So, we have heard so much during the Budget Speech from the wise man from the East. He had placed a Budget, the last Budget, not this Interim Budget in 1984. We went for the elections. The country went for the elections in December, 1984. Again, Shri Pranab Mukherjee has placed a Budget, though it is an Interim Budget, just before the election. But there is a great difference. Now, I would conclude by saying that a wise man from the East has wasted an opportunity, an opportunity to lift this country from morass, to lift this country to greater heights, to lift this country to greater economic position. Sir, at the very outset, I would like to say that I feel the Interim Budget presented by the hon.
