Almost all the private big business in telecom sector are in dock in the 2G scam. If anybody is not involved in the 2G scam, they are already involved in the earlier irregularities, violation of rules and regulations or getting undue advantage from the government. The corporate czars, Tata, Ambani and heads of almost all private telcos have already been summoned and examined by the CBI, PAC and other inquiry agencies. They may be called by the Joint Parliament Committee also.
The unholy nexus between the corporate houses, top politicians, bureaucrats, lobbyists, media persons – those who are powerful and rich are involved in looting the assets of the country. It has come to such an extent that during the last one year alone scams after scams involving lakhs and lakhs of crores have surfaced. The Manmohan Singh government has lost all authority to speak about ethics, morals, integrity and governance.
The liberalisation, privatisation and globalisation initiated by the Government since 1991 have its worse experience in the telecom sector, which is stated to be the biggest growing sector. The corruption, favouritism and irregularity all are also in the highest in telecom. But it is not alone. Even in the strategic and highly security area of defence and space organisation the corruption and favouritism are continuously happening as is seen in the Antrix-Devas agreement as also the Adarsh scam.
A clean up of the whole system is necessary. First of all, the crony capitalism being followed by the government has to be stopped forthwith. The people of this country has to fight unitedly for that.
