Kamal Nath’s dilemma |
January 10 2011 |
The country’s biggest political family is also working on what to do with Kamal Nath. While Sonia Gandhi has emerged as the man’s guardian angel, Rahul and Priyanka want the transport minister out with immediate effect. Papers are still being distributed in the political corridors about the corruption and scams in the highways. It is believed that not only is law and protocol being kept aside where giving highway contracts to companies is concerned, the tenders are also being accommodated according to personal whims. In several BOT (build, operate and transfer) projects, companies are being allowed to charge any amount of toll. That means that a project for which the tax should be 20 years, it has now been increased to 33 years. Kamal Nath is no novice at corruption. |
