Re: [Assam] telecom scandal in India

2010-12-14 Thread Ram Dhar

 
Not much hope  judging from the past trends ..remember Bofors :-) 
 
 Unholy alliance between politics, media  and corporate house  has  tarnished 
India Inc image here.  In todays world political morality is negotiable and 
corruption becomes it currency !!! Wonder how  many more scams will pop up - 
adarsh, spectrum, Commonwealth games funds misuse etc.
Kudos to Supreme court for asking "Mum" Mohan Singh why he had presided over 
the loot ( Rs 1.75 lakh crore )  , was it to preserve himself in power?
I hope judiciary will step up here and  punish these guys who were involved in 
this  irregularity.

*** What do YOU think Ram?  We may not be gods-gift-to-humanity, but have 
enough smarts to observe 
and draw conclusions from trends that we have seen spanning decades. What is 
your take?



>b.There is a risk that India will evolve toward a condition of oligarchic 
>capitalism, in which the market and 
political power of major corporations will become a drag on long-term growth 
and a source of distortion in policy   

*** WHAT policy?

interesting observation in that article-
 
a. Can the system mete out punishment for wrongdoing.
b.There is a risk that India will evolve toward a condition of oligarchic 
capitalism, in which the market and political power of major corporations will 
become a drag on long-term growth and a source of distortion in policy
