Dear all,
Welcome.
JPC(2G): The Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) had held the then telecon. minister, A.Raza, to be responsible for the 2G scam stating that he had misled the PM. Nothing had been found against Finance minister, Chidambaran.
In its draft report, it had also rejected the estimate mentioned in the CAG's report of around 11.76 lakh crores INR worth revenue losses.It is to note that earlier Supreme Court had cancelled the 122 licenses allocated to various companies in view of the 2G scam. The report had held A.Raza to be guilty of mutilating Press note dated January 7, 2008. The then solicitor general, Vahanvati, was sought for change in it, for which CBI claims to have adequate forensic evidence.
As per the report, the first come, first serve basis of allocation of spectrum was just show off and present policy was ignored. Also, assurance provided by A.Raza to the PM regarding transparency had not been followed up.
It is to note that a 30 member committee was constituted during March 2011 in this regard. As per it, the recommendations of various committees were put up from time to time but no policy was put forward for allocation of 2G spectrum. But TRAI, DoT, Finance minister and Planning Commission had agreed for logical value of the 2G spectrum so that service providers got the equal opportunity.
As per report, the decision upon Letter of Intent (LoI) should have been based upon the fact that only those companies should deposit entry fees, which could be capable of sustaining delay and unavailability. The then telecon. minister had decided that LoI could be issued to those applying till September 25. It was a wrong decision. The JPC Committee opined that it should had been increased upto October 1, 2007 for availability of spectrum and procedure should have been published to make it more transparent.
Media: Media player, India today, had released its list of powerful persons. In the event of upcoming general elections, issues like welfare schemes and such campaigning is more likely to have precedence over important factors like Anti-corruption movement. Naturally, Anna Hazare had not been included in the list for its obvious reasons as also as the fact that the movement had been derailed from its gainful objectives. Fifteen days of hunger protest led against Delhi State's Electricity price hike had been a big failure. AAP party had also been a delineated segment of this movement with "Team Anna" dissolved.
