It was more like govt. passing something without consensus building.

 

But is consensus building a necessity in any democratic country? 

If a government wants to pass a bill or a legislature and they invite all the relevant stakeholders to come and debate on it or find a majority/consensus on it, would it always be achieved ? 

If it doesn't get achieved,  should that mean that it shouldn't be implemented?    This would be an ideal situation where two parties are working on the same goals with mutually exclusive repercussions but if it's a linked issue where the outcome of a certain law or legislation is "deemed" to be beneficial for a country - Is consensus an aboslute necessity ? I don't see that as being practical or even possible.

For example - If govt decides to increase tuition fee or University fee for students by 10% a year,  ofcourse the student's wouldn't be happy with that and wouldn't reach a consensus but does that mean that's a wrong decision to implement the hike in fee?

Or If a govt let's say decides to increase taxes on major corporations within a country but they get opposed by the major companies and there isn't a consenses - then should the Administration not employ those changes ?

You are trying to manipulate half the Indian economy. You need some consensus. Just like 370. Absolutely the right thing to do and there was consensus.

You missed some gems for sure.  and you didn't definitely see the bigger picture.

The govt was getting cursed quite globally 

Farming always draws attention. Was the govt. Right in the long term. Yes they were. But farming is subsidized everywhere. It has to be done gradually.

I am sure there would have been some degree of consensus - when you have a country of the size of India with a billion perspectives -how can you really take everybody on board? 

It isn't always the magnitude for example if a country let's say impose conscription into Army - Turkey, France , Sweden many have it. Now a law like that affects the whole population of the country -  everyone is a stakeholder and if a consensus is tried to be built around that - you'd never get people supporting that as a practice as you'd have to send your child away whether you like it or not but countries do enforce these laws.

even the US does not really build consensus over things like Gun Laws or Border Wall etc.  or backing away from the Paris agreement .
