CHIDAMBARAM'S SILENCE ON CORRUPTION RIDDEN GOVERNANCE
Replying to the debate in parliament on 27th August , P.Chidambaram blamed several external factors as well as the judiciary's "interference" for the country's economic mess , as if he has no responsibility . He made empty promises like curtailing current account deficit, boosting manufacturing sector etc. without really explaining why he has not done this all these years and how he would do it now which the UPA has not done during its governance.
The real grim fact which he conveniently ignored is the widespread corruption in the governance by UPA government, resulting in siphoning of thousands of crores of rupees by unscrupulous ministers , politicians and bureaucrats and associated business men , which resulted in coal scam , 2G scam, Commonwealth scam etc. etc. Money meant for development projects are now largely in the pockets of unscrupulous people forming part of this government and Finance Minister has nothing to say about this as this will amount to blaming himself.
He indulged in empty rhetoric asking why should we import coal . The country is forced to import coal because of the coal scam of the government. Are we not paying a huge price for the corruption ridden governance led by Manmohan Singh ?
N.S.Venkataraman
