In our Editorial section, the Union government's surprise move to introduce a Bill to amend Articles 75, 164 and 239AA of the Constitution to disqualify the Prime Minister, Council of Minister, Chief Ministers and State Ministers if they are arrested and detained for 30 consecutive days on allegations of offences punishable with five years' imprisonment was analysed. The Editorial criticised the Bill as it violates principles of natural justice innocent until proven guilty. A recent RBI paper on the need for reviewing flexible inflation targeting' (FIT) was another major topic in our Editorial section. The Editorial welcomed the RBI's suggestion of reducing the band on either side of the 4 per cent inflation target by 1.5 percentage points from the current 2 per cent. The Editorial even argued for raising the inflation target itself, given the current geopolitical shocks. The US Fed chief Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole speech, where he signaled the end of zero rate era was welcomed in our Editorial. It also argued that Powell's hint of a rate cut is good news for India on the capital flows front.
