Some limitations are obvious, some limitations are very fine, they are subtle.

Warns Against Sensationalism Affecting Institutional Integrity

It can set a political debate afloat. It can trigger a narrative. We have to be extremely conscious about our Institutions. They are robust, they are working independently, they are under checks and balances. They work under rule of law. In that situation, if we work in a manner to just generate some sensation, to become a focal point or epicenter of a political debate or a narrative that I will appeal to the concerned is wholly avoidable,” Mr Dhankhar said in his remarks.
