I think its easy to throw abuses and mudsling. I am not batting for the CM here just saying that it would be much more useful if we stopped abuses and used intelligent comments instead.

Former DoT secretary Mathur has spilled the beans that Raja unheeded the advice given to him. That he sold the spectrum to real estate builders and fake telecom companies in itself show that he had purposefully looted.

Not sure where you got that info from. From what I read in this article Raja says he is ready for the probe..Am i missing a point?
As a union cabinet minister and the head of Telecom, it is absolutely rubbish when he points out that all he did was follow guidelines set by TRAI. This is acceptable for any person below his office as a "getaway" statement, but him as a minister is also responsible to oversee and come up with the best possible solution to help the public and raise revenue for the Government. In saying that he had merely followed guidelines, he has wholly accepted the blame that he never rethought or evaluated options for the auction. Though he may not have direct authority on the TRAI, he can still put for his views and stall the auction until the better solution was come up with. In doing as he has, he has failed as a competent minister and caused massive loss to the state. I wouldn't go to say he was corrupt. His strong statements and adamant poise in the recent days does signify that he may not have been corrupt but he will be guilty on the fact that he has caused such a massive loss.
All the money swindled in that scam has been used to buy spice jet and now to ink the deal with boeing to buy 33 aircrafts..... how else in the world when all the airlines in the world are bleeding with losses, kalnithi maran who doesnt understand a word of airlines goes ahead and buys a airline company.
Placing orders with boeing is only to make mms think twice before going ahead with digging money trail..... just imagine the situation wherein it comes out that all that ill gotten money is what with spice has signed the deal with boeing with Obama on the dias?????
Come what it may be money should be traced and bought to govt coffers.

I doubt karunaa and kanimozhi would have allowed raja to divert the spectrum scam money to kalaanidhi maaran; intra-family fights can only be more severe than inter-caste, inter-regional, inter-creed fights.
