CHAPTER 179

179

THE DEGRADATION

       The last mail was submitted to Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil, Her Excellency the President of India, on 13 June 2011. The same mail was sent to the Supreme Court, Indian Army, Indian Air Force, Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Election Commission of India. It was posted in the blog www: howeverythinghappenedinindia.blogspot.com and a link was given to www.thattan.com

          The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) of India disclosed that the Union Government had granted “massive and unquantifiable” benefits to the Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) at Tax payer’s expense. The Hindu and some other newspapers reported this on 14 June 2011.
          In the above matter, the CAG had uncovered the nexus between the industrialists, and the bureaucrats with documentary evidence. It had pin pointed several anomalies in the audit report of the Director General of Hydrocarbons (DGH). It, finally, said that the DCH had illegally allowed the RIL to inflate the capital expenditure from $ 2.4 billion to $8.5 billion, using false bills or by fraudulent means.
In fact, Mr. Anil Ambani had demanded the Audit Report of the DGH for the KG basin. He might have asked this to fix Mr. Mukesh Ambani, his brother. However, it is a matter of public interest because the loss to the exchequer is a real one.
          The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) headed by Dr. Murali Manohar Joshi had put the blame on the Empowered Group of Ministers (EGoM) headed by Mr. P.Chithambaram. There must be some truth in it. Otherwise, the latter would not have got such a long innings in the Union Government.
         The media has not published the real role played by Dr. Manmohan Singh, Prime Minister of India. He might explain it as his policy. But, Mr. Murli Deora became a minister only at the instance of some industrialists.
           Mr. Jaipal Reddy, Minister for Petroleum, said that the Government would approach the report with an open mind. This means that the CBI, Supreme Court or the President of India would lead the Government in this matter. He may not betray his home state in this matter is a different matter.
      In this connection, it must be noted that it is customary for the Prime Minister of India –just like the heads of other countries - to take with him the industrialists during his visit to important countries. In India, the Government has not only removed the assets of the industrialists like Mr. Ramalinga Raju   but also has put some young entrepreneurs in jail for committing relatively small offences or no offences, all without fair judicial process.
          Now the CAG has established with documentary evidence grave offences. Therefore, Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil, Her Excellency the President of India, should have asked the Government to tell the reason for not filing even a FIR. Alternatively, she should have asked the Supreme Court to give its opinion in this matter.
 
          The Union Government on 15 June 2011 said that there was a tyranny of non-political individuals on the Union Government.

          The Maxis – in a filing with the Malaysia stock exchange –Bursa Malaysia- in March 2006 said that it had an economic interest of 99.3 per cent in the Aircel. Decan Digital Net-work owned by the wife of a Mr. Dwaraknath Reddy had 35 per cent share-holding in the Aircel.
          According to the Indian laws, the Indian partner should hold 26 per cent equity in a cellular service firm.
          Does the CBI keep Mr. A. Raja in the jail for the above matter? Did it  arrest any others in the above matter? Does the CBI hatch any conspiracy? Nothing is known to anyone.

          Now the Union Government gave an email address to enable the people to give suggestions on black money. Therefore, the Chapter No.178 of this work was emailed to bmfeedback@nic.in on 16 June 2011.
         The people surrounding Mr. Anna Kazare should have transmitted the translated version of the salient points of this work to him. Apparently, they have not done so. Therefore, he is not mentioning any act of corruption.
          However, the media mafia has been giving unprecedented importance to him. His photograph adorns the front page of all newspapers. He is always seen with the two advocates known for Re.4 crore.
Showing his photograph The Hindu on 16 June 2011 said that he was on his way to attend a meeting in the Parliament House.
          The New Indian Express on the same day came out with the following headline news. “Govt, Team Hazare Fail to Bridge Gap”.
          The front page headline news of Deccan Chronicle on the same day was – “Two bills to be drafted”.
          The Economic Times in its second page came out with news titled, “Lokpal Talks Deadlocked” on the same day.
          Similarly on 17 June 2011, the papers reported as follows in their front page headline news.
The Indian Express: It’s Jokepal, Say Civil Society Reps”.
Deccan Chronicle: “ Don’t threaten and talk; Sibal to Anna”.
          The regional language newspapers all over India are also taking orders from the same source and are coming out with identical or complementary news. Thus a Tamil daily on 17 June 2011 came out with a title meaning “Warning! To the Centre by Anna Hazare”.
          Evidently, the media has been giving great importance to Mr. Hazare. It is eclipsing all political leaders using him.
          The leaders – in turn- are shunning the studios of the underground moles.  However, Mr. Dig Vijaya Singh and Mr. P. Chithambaram found time to show their countenances in the last few days. After all, they are the known representatives of the manipulators.
          The TV channels are inviting the so-called Civil Society Activists like Mr. Anna Hazare, Mr. Arvind Kejriwal, Ms. Kiran Bedi to their studios. As they do not mention any act of corruption, they are also the representatives of the manipulators. 
                     
          Justice Markandey Katyu, a sitting judge of the Supreme Court, on 16 June 2011 –through a letter- requested Dr. Manmohan Singh to release the Pakistani national - on humanitarian grounds - 80 year old Dr. Khadil Chishty, languishing in Ajmer jail in Rajastan. He added that he was making this appeal not as a judge of the Supreme Court but as a human being under article 72 of the Constitution of India. The media gave great one-day publicity - all over India - to the above letter.
          Dr.Chishty has been in jail since 1992, as he had got implicated in a murder case when he came to India. He had been charged under section 302 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).        
      Justice Katyu could have used his influence - as a human being - to enforce freedom of expression in India. Then, the people might have seen this work. He has not done so. This indicates that this judge is an agent of the industrialists.
          Further, the Government Servants –as a rule – do not address such letters. Justice Katyu could give Freedom to them to do this.

          A report on 16 June 2011 said that the ICICI bank had given a loan of Re. 5645.44 crore to the RIL.
          This shows that an underground sluice each connects every private bank also with the RIL.
  
          A Special Bench of the Supreme Court comprising Justice G.S. Singhvi and Justice B.S. Chauhan denied bail to Mrs. Kanimozhi in the 2G spectrum scandal. The CBI submitted that the case was in an advanced stage and bail would affect its investigation.      
          In this connection, it must be stated that Justice G.S. Singhvi had not cleared his name in the Re.4 crore issue before he decided to sit in the bench. Therefore, Mrs. Kanimozli could have given a list of about 15 other judges to hear the case.
          During the hearing, Justice B.S. Chauhan described acts of corruption as the worst violation of human rights. He said this to protect the big offenders like Dr. Manmohan Singh.
            At one stage, Justice G.S.Singhvi remarked that the accused had financial and political clout. He considered this as a notion and bail could be given. Alas! It was only a soliloquy. It was reminiscent of the famous soliloquy in Macbeth.
The present writer mentioned the name of Mr. A.B. Vajpayee in the last chapter in this connection. This was the reason for the soliloquy.
               
    Citing national security, the Union Government on 20 June 2011 made the CBI exempt under the Right to Information Act (RTI).

          There are reports that 16 small bugging instruments had been found in different places in the official room of Mr.Pranab Mukherjee, Finance Minister of India. Mr. P.Chithambaram, Home Minister, denies this.

      The Union Government ordered an enquiry to ascertain the assets of Justice K.G. Balakrishnan, former Chief Justice of India. The enquiry must cover Chief Justice S.H. Kapadia also.

          Five girls were raped in the UP state. One girl was killed. Similarly a rape occurred in the Kerala state. The media is highlighting this as all India news only now.    

          The newspapers on 20 June 2011 revealed that the Indian Navy was helping Vietnam to build its submarine fleet. This is to counter the growing influence of China on the neighbouring countries of India.

          A report on 23 June 2011 said that the Union Government had chosen Mrs. Nirupama Rao, Foreign Secretary, as the Indian Ambassador to the USA. She would join duty after her retirement in July 2011.
          In this connection, it must be noted that she played a role to convert India into a vassal of China. Barring textile items, all Indian shops are even now replete with the illegally imported Chinese articles. The act of appointing her as the Ambassador to the USA is akin to the appointment of Justice K.G. Balakrishnan as the Chairman of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC). Therefore, she could be considered for the above post only after identifying the officers and others responsible for the treasonable offence.
          In this connection, it must be noted that disgusted with work, The New Indian Express gave vent to its pent up anger on 19 June 2011. The paper said that there was shortage of goose –stepping patriotism on display.  It added that India was a “memory obsessed country”.  
  
          Mr. A.P. Singh, Director, CBI, had submitted before the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) that Mr. A. Raja had issued Letters of Intent (LoI) that were unviable to support new players. For instance, in the Delhi circle, 8 MHz spectrum was viable for one operator but the DoT issued LoI to six players. Other circles were similarly related.
          Mr. Singh, further, told the JPC that Tata had given an advance of Re. 1700 crore to Unitech Ltd   to buy 517 acre land in Gurgaon in October 2007. The Unitech used the money to buy spectrum.
      Later, the Unitech paid back Re.1098 crore between June 2008 and January 2011 as Tata had chosen to buy only 44.15 acre. Mr. Singh explained this as single transaction not related to spectrum. JPC might have asked him to tell the reason for the special treatment meted out to Kalaingar TV.
          From the nature of the deliberations, one would think that the CBI –as an institution - now remains as an accused, even before the JPC.
     Therefore, CBI would have to catch the real offenders.

          The Union Government has decided to convene the Parliament on 1 August 2011.
          Latently, Dr. Manmohan Singh has lost his majority. Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil must ask him to convene the Parliament within three or four days or tender his resignation.
         
          There are reports that a meeting of Mr. Anna Hazare and the political leaders would give final shape to a new anti-corruption bill called Lok Pal on 3 July 2011.
          In this connection, it must stated that the CBI could now seek the permission of the Supreme Court to prosecute the President of India for conniving at the decision of the Union Cabinet to hand over Re.3 lakh crore from the Provident Fund (PF) to some private parties. The Chief Justice of India and the Prime Minister of India are similarly related.
          The Supreme Court would have to grant permission after establishing the illegality.
           Obviously, India cannot have a stronger anti-corruption law. The efforts of Mr. Anna Hazare, Ms. Kiran Bedi and the others are to dilute this so that the wealth of the big offenders would be conserved.
          They should note the recent disposal of the bail petition of Mrs. Kanimozli by the Supreme Court.
               She had submitted her petition before the vacation bench comprising Justice B.S. Chauhan and Justice Swatanter Kumar.
          The above bench had posed three questions to the CBI. They were:
1. What happened to Re.200 crore paid as bribe to Kalaigar TV? Through this question the bench indirectly asked the CBI the reason for not - doing its duty of - attaching the assets of all suspected beneficiaries.
2. The loss suffered by the Government in the grant of 13 Unified Access Service - licences. This is to know whether the Supreme Court promoted corruption by allowing the policy makers to transmit public assets to private parties in the pretext of policy.
3. The status of the 2G trial before the Special CBI court. This is to know whether Mr. A. Raja or Mrs. Kanimozli amassed wealth by committing any illegality, and if not, the reason for sending them to the Tihar jail before the completion of the investigation.
          The bench virtually ordered a parallel CBI enquiry to know whether the Supreme Court –misusing its power- enacted any coup against a Union Minister through the aid of the CBI or not,
          Apparently due to a conspiracy, the bench was changed, and Justice Sathasivam and Justice A.K. Patnaik  were asked to hear the case. They refused. Why did Chief Justice S.H. Kapadia change the bench during court vacation?
          However, the above two judges would have done justice. But the people would say that they spoiled the good work done by the CBI.
       Justice G.A. Ganguly and many other judges also might have hesitated to cancel the vacation for the same reason.
        Some learned judges might have refused to share the bench with Justice G.S. Singhvi.
          The Chief Justice, therefore- substituted the dangerous Justice Swatanter Kumar in the vacation bench by Justice G.S. Singhvi. This must be how Justice B.S.Chauhan and Justice G.S. Singhvi heared the bail petition of Mrs. Kanimozhi.
          What prompted Justice G.S. Singhvi to cancel the vacation?       
          This is the observation of a citizen of India sitting away from the Supreme Court.
          Ignoring the Constitution of India, the Supreme Court is degrading itself by its own mind.
          Mr. Anna Hazare and the other social activists could have worked to prevent the degradation of the Supreme Court.
          The facts from 13 June 2011 to 25 June 2011 are being submitted to Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil, Her Excellency the President of India, on 26 June 2011.

CHAPTER 178

178

NAKED AND WITHOUT COLOUR


          The last mail was submitted to Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil, Her Excellency the President of India, on 4 June 2011. The same mail was sent to the Supreme Court, Indian Army, Indian Air Force, Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Election Commission of India. It was posted in the blog www: howeverythinghappenedinindia.blogspot.com and a link was given to www.thattan.com

          Dr. M.Karunanidhi on 4 June 2011 said that the 2G spectrum investigation was proceeding on the assumption that his daughter, Mrs. Kanimozhi, was the root cause for the scandal.
         
          Swamy Baba Ramdev started a hunger strike on 4 June 2011 demanding a law to attach the properties of the people stashing money abroad. Ironically, he put his own assets at Re.1100 crore. The Union Government arrested him on the next day at 3.45 A.M.  About 100 among his supporters were injured in the police action.
          Four ministers of the Union Cabinet under Mr. Pranab Mukergee had gone to the airport to welcome him when he arrived at Delhi to undertake the fast. Even Mr.Bill Clinton, the then President of the USA, did not get such a welcome when he arrived at Delhi.
          No other citizen of India also had obtained such a welcome. Apparently, the industrialists directed the Union Ministers to give a grand reception. In fact, the media was fast creating a stronger Anna Kare. 
          The present writer – in his mail submitted to Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil, Her Excellency the President of India, on 3 June 2011- said that the Union Ministers had gone to meet him because of his link with the industrialists.
          Some Union Ministers might have picked up courage to criticize the above ministers. Mr. Digvijaya Singh – a leader of the Congress Party- openly attacked Mr. Prabab Mukherjee for going to the airport.
       Whatever happened, the Union Government decided to arrest him within 24 hours of the receipt of that letter.        
       Media extracted the views of many leaders and started publishing them simultaneously all over India.
          Mr. L.K. Advani, the leader of the principal opposition party, described the mid -night crack-down on Baba Ramdev as “naked” Fascism.
          His party –the BJP- accused Dr. Manmohan Singh and Mrs. Sonia Gandhi of ordering the crackdown, and declared a nationwide protest.
          In this connection, it must be noted that after Dr. Manmohan Singh had given Re.3 lakh crore rotting in the Provident Fund to two or three private parties, Mr. L.K. Advani did not utter even a word. Even now he does not open his mouth as and when he gives public assets to some private parties.
          Mr. Subramonia Swamy- a former Union Law Minister, said that after Dr. Manmohan Singh had retired for the night, Mrs. Sonia Gandhi instructed Mr. P.Chithambaram, Home Minister, to take action. He said this as if he had been with Dr. Manmohan Singh.
                     Mr. Narendra Modi, Chief Minister of Gujarat state, described the police action as a barbaric one. He depicted the incident as the beginning of the end of the UPA rule.
          Mr. Mulayan Singh Yadav, President of the Samajwadi Party, condemned the midnight swoop.
          The Communists Party of India-M (CPI-M) and the CPI said that the mid-night arrest was an unwarranted one.
           Further, the media started telling the people that Mrs. Sonia Gandhi betrayed all Indians. Everyone thought India was turning upside down and the days of Mrs. Sonia Gandhi –as the leader of the nation- were numbered.   
          Naturally, she asked Dr. Manmohan Singh to explain the police action.
        Further, the members of the Congress Party were asked to refrain from attending the TV channels of the industrialists. Mr. Manisankar Iyer, former Union Minister, alone defied this.
         The industrialists realized that any action against Mrs. Sonia Gandhi would lead to the substitution of Dr. Manmohan Singh with another person. This pricked the bubble of Baba Ramdev. He quickly forgave him and continued the fast only to break it after nine days.
               On 6 June 2011, an advocate, Mr. Ajay Agrawal, petitioned the Supreme Court to issue a direction to the Government to issue a white paper on the forceful eviction of Baba Ramdev from the Ramlila Maidan at Delhi.
         The above move also back - fired.  
          Thus, a Supreme Court bench comprising Justice B.S. Chauhan and Justice Swatanter Kumar observed that the contents of the petition had reached the press before they got a chance to go through it. They said that the press had reported that the case was listed for hearing the next day at 10.30 A.M. They asked, “Why is it so?”
          However, the bench suo motu, issued notices to the Union Government based on newspaper reports.
       Thus, the bench directed the Registry to take on record articles and news items along with the notice to the respondents. The bench, practically, defeated the purpose of the petition.
          The bench should have ordered an enquiry to identify the people responsible for publishing the time of hearing. Now, all right thinking people believe that the industrialists interfere even in the day- to – day business of the Supreme Court. In the past, they had been keeping the agenda of the Union Cabinet.
          The episode shows that the industrialists are capable of installing anyone as the future ruler of the nation using the media. Anna Kare and Baba Ramdev experiments failed to click is another matter.
          However, the crucial point is that the Supreme Court had been telling to the people that it would not take cognizance of any news paper reports and their articles. Now, it is taking action solely based on newspaper reports.
          The Supreme Court had taken action based on even a post card.
     Yet 177 letters are not sufficient to curb corruption, enforce freedom of expression or to establish justice!

          The Tamil Nadu Assembly on 8 June 2011 unanimously adopted a resolution asking the Union Government to impose economic sanctions on Sri Lanka until it accords rights to the Tamils on par with the Sinhalas.
       Another resolution urged the Union Government to declare all those who committed war crimes against Sri Lankan Tamils as war criminals.
     The above resolutions were welcomed by all right thinking people of Tamil Nadu state. Such resolutions might open the eye of the world.
          It must be noted that the UN had - more or less – declared that Mr. Mahinda Rajapaksa, President of Sri Lanka, as a war criminal.

       The CBI said that it had unearthed a racket relating to manipulations in the recently held AIIMS PG exam, and an all India level veterinary test with the arrest of seven persons.
          It was alleged that a private firm had been awarded contract by Veterinary Council of India for result processing.
          Despite several such discoveries, the Union Government and the Supreme Court are not ready to reserve a definite quota of seats for every state to meet the ends of the Constitution of India.

          Mr. A.P.Singh, Director of the CBI, submitted before the Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC)  that Mr. Raja, former Telecom Minister, coerced and threatened the officers to give preference to the Swan Telecom and the Unitech Wireless against the Tata while awarding licenses.
         
          Now Dr.Manmohan Singh reminded the Union Ministers to declare the assets of their kith and kin.

          Mr. Sivasankaran now submitted before the CBI that the 14 licenses approved to the Aircel  in 2004 were given only after he had sold it to a Malaysian firm called Maxis. He reiterated that Mr. Dayanidhi Maran forced him to sell his firm to Maxis in 2006.
          Mr. Dayanidhi Maran retorted that the Aircel of Mr. Sivasankaran had been parading itself for sale long before he became a minister. He added that he had wanted to sell his firm to Hutchinson and a Russian firm Sistema.
          It is strange that some people could extract telephone licenses only to reap a huge profit by selling them to individuals from China, Pakistan, Russia or Malaysia thereby threatening the security of India. The present writer foresaw this in Letter No.8. However, it is a treasonable offence. But the Supreme Court considers this as a child’s play. It must be noted that the Maxis would not have paid even the stamp duty.

          The chapters 8 and 9 from www.aconspiracy-india.blogspot.com were submitted to Mrs. Pratibha Devesingh Patil, Supreme Court, Indian Army and Air Force on 7 and 9 March 2011 respectively.

          High Court, Delhi on 8 June dismissed the bail pleas of Mrs. Kanimozhi and Mr. Sarad Kumar, Managing Director of the Kalaigner TV. Justice Bharihoke observed that the accused had strong political connections and the possibility of them influencing the witnesses could not be ruled out.
          Justice Bharihoke is coming to the core.
          Mrs. Kanimozhi belongs to a regional political party. Its influence is a very  limited one. Even the National parties –Congress and the BJP- are not independent. They depend on the industrialists for their survival.  
          It is pertinent to recall that Mr. A.B. Vajpayee, the then Prime Minister of India had asked the members of the Cabinet Committee on Disinvestments (CCD) to remain in Delhi before receiving the bids for the public sector Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL) on 20 March 2002. He went home, waited for the sun to rise and convened a meeting of the CCD. The CCD decided to hand over the HZL. Everything was over within a span 24 hours.
          Similarly he handed over Domestic Long Distances Services and the International Long Distance Services virtually free of cost to the Reliance Industries Limited.
          Justice Bharihoke indirectly says that Mr. A.B. Vajpayee evades arrest only because of his political connections.
    
     Mr. A.K. Antony said that the nation was going through a transparency revolution. Does he tell that the people would see this work?  Significance of his statement is not a clear one.
          Mr. Anil Ambani on 9 June 2011 settled the various irregularities of Reliance Securities by giving Re.25 lakh to the Securities and Exchange Board (SEBI). Here, the petitioner and the judge are the same. The people think that there exists a conspiracy in the settlement.

          A bench of the Madras High Court comprising Chief Justice M.Y. Iqbal and Justice T.S. Sivagnanam stayed the Bill to amend section 3 of the Tamil Nadu Uniform System of School Education Act. The judgement is not biased against anyone. During the previous stint of Miss Jayalalitha, Justice Dinakaran had given some judgments detrimental to the interests of the employees. Later he was promoted as the Chief Justice of a High Court.
         

          The militant people killed four soldiers in the Chhattisgarh state on 10 June 2011. They have killed 20 soldiers in the last one week.
         
          On 11 June 2011, Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil described the Army Officers as future leaders. Does she exhort them to see that public assets are used for public welfare? The message is not a clear one.

          The State Bank of India (SBI) gave Re.15815.48 crore to the Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) between April and July 2010. The New India Express reported this on 11 June 2011.
          It is not customary for the newspapers to report news like the above one. In fact, what prompted the paper to report it is not known. However, it is an incredible amount.
       The report shows that each nationalized bank is connected through an underground sluice to the RIL.
          The RIL might have used part of the money to buy assets in India and abroad. Another part might have gone for sub lending. It might have stashed another part in foreign banks.
          What is the net amount removed by the RIL from all banks in India?
          Obviously, this is how black money is generated and stashed in foreign banks. If the people undertaking hunger strikes talk about this, they will not get any publicity.
          A person going for a jewel loan would have to spend an hour to 5 five hours in the SBI. This is because –unlike in other banks- there are no appraisers in the SBI. The SBI adopts this policy to limit the gold loan to the public. Does any industrialist go to the bank for this money?
          The SBI is collecting 0.5 percent processing fee for jewel loan. Did the RIL pay the processing fee?
          How do they repay the money?
          Does the bank monitor the method of utilization?
       The revelation confirms the fact that the industrialists bought the PSUs or their shares using public money.
          This also confirms the prediction of this writer in Chapter 1 that the public assets were converted into private assets using public money.
       This money –not democracy- keeps Mrs. Sonia Gandhi, Dr. Manmohan Singh and Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil and many others in their respective positions.
This is the mother of all acts of corruption. This is the grossest wickedness.
Finally, this is the reason why Freedom does not smile upon Indians. For the same reason the people see the Supreme Court naked and without colour.
The facts from 4 June 2011 to 12 June 2011 are being submitted to Mrs. Pratibha Devi Singh Patil, Her Excellency the President of India, on 13 June 2011.
