2 G Scam-Chidambaram Involved?

The Finance ministry was aware that there was something amiss in granting of licenses of 2G.

This is proved by the fact that the MoF had written to telecom ministry.

This was not followed up.

When suitable reply has not been received from the Ministry,Chidambaram should have taken it up with the GoM or the PM.

Now we find that there are ‘Non paper Decisions'(new term for unlawful decisions), and that there were no records kept for the meeting of Raja and Chidambaram.

All tis point out to acquiescence if not active participation of Chidambaram.

As I have noted in my earlier blog,is this a quid pro quo for manipulation of  last Parliament elections, about which a case is pending.

2G scam runs deep.

It appears to lead towards PMO as well as Sonia Gandhi.

Despite clear indications the media is shy of mentioning either name .

Worse still PM is considered Honest and even called as ‘hands on PM’!

Stepping up its demand for the removal of P Chidambaram from the Union Cabinet, BJP on Saturday said as Finance Minister he was as much involved in the 2G spectrum scam as then Telecom Minister A Raja and insisted that he should also be incarcerated for his complicity.

BJP spokesperson and Rajya Sabha MP Tarun Vijay maintained that it has now been “proved beyond doubt” that Chidambaram had connived with Raja in the 2G scam and the cover-up exercise that followed was done after taking the former into confidence.

“Chidambaram is as much responsible and culpable for this scam as Raja. His place is not where he is today (in the union cabinet) but where Raja is today,” Vijay told reporters.

The Opposition demanded that not only should Chidambaram, who is now Home Minister in UPA-II, be sacked but also sent to jail like Raja and DMK MP Kanimozhi.

He claimed to have a copy of the letter written by Raja to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on November 7, 2008 in which the former has reportedly stated that he was acting on the advice of Chidambaram.

“Raja acted on Chidambaram’s advice like a nursery-class student. Later as an obedient student, he informed the Prime Minister about the whole thing,” Vijay said.

He alleged that these ministers have “looted the wealth” of the country when they were given the mandate to protect its interest.
