Today’s “Word of the Day” is “flip-flop“ and it is a noun meaning “a sudden reversal of something, particularly a policy/plan”.
Example Sentence: In just over a month since the Siddaramaiah-led Congress government came to power in Karnataka, a row over “denial” of rice by the Centre for Anna Bhagya, one of the State government’s flagship programmes to be launched on July 1, has kept the political pot boiling. The Centre’s flip-flop over the supply of more rice to the State has not only led to a slugfest between the Congress and BJP, but has likely derailed the launch. Besides, the cost of implementation, estimated to be around ₹10,000 crore, is likely to go up.
