3G SPECTRUM AUCTION PROVES Mr. RAJA’S CORRUPTION

The outcome of the 3G spectrum auction convincingly proves that Union Communication Minister, Shri A. Raja, was clearly involved in corrupt practices by selling 2G spectrum to some industrialists by manipulating TRAI recommendations. Whereas 3G spectrum could fetch Rs. 70,000 crores, 2G spectrum was sold at a paltry sum of Rs. 2000 crores only. Shri Raja had done so by blatantly violating the law causing a huge loss to the public exchequer.

Despite repeated demands made in parliament and outside, Shri A. Raja is nonchalantly continuing to stick to his position. Such a situation cannot be allowed to be continued.

Shri A. Raja should immediately resign from his post pending a high power enquiry into the entire 2G spectrum scam.

If the minister refuses to resign, the Prime Minister should sack him to maintain the dignity of the high post Shri A. Raja is holding in the Government.

Prime Minister can’t absolve himself of his responsibility citing political compulsions of coalition politics. The congress agitated when telecom scam surface during NDA regime. During the NDA regime the government lost a similar whopping Rs 60,000 Crores as it allowed private telecom players to shift from fixed licensing fee to revenue sharing formula. The same NDA takes a moral high ground today, while the congress refuses to relent.
