Supreme Court found wrong doings in 2G spectrum allocation case and cancelled 122 Licenses which Modi Govt re-auctioned and fetched more than Rs 100,000 crores. But Special CBI Court found no corruption and acquitted all "INNOCENT and HONEST" politicians and Babus. What a disaster ! The whole world must be laughing at us. How corruption can be checked if our judiciary works like this? Supreme Court has a view point on evry other " IMPORTANT nad BURNING ISSUES" like- a) Should women enter Temples and Mosques or not. b) If they are entering, what they should wear- Saree, jeans or salwar. c) how BCCI should conduct cricket matches in india d) Is Lord Ram is mythological or real. e) Whether Temples and Mosques should play loud speakers or not. f) How many wives a Muslim should be allowed to have.
There are thousands of multi Billion dollar scams involving our politicians but they are roaming around freely. SC has no time to decide these corruption cases. Can our Country progress ?

Well put Mr. Chandrashekar Nayak. The Courts should be independent and impart justice without any interference from Government. These days we see the Executive over-ruling Courts and every Politician becoming a Judge in matters of disputes and differences between parties. PM thinks that he is the law and above law.
A loss is when one invests something and earns less than the investment. A "presumptive" loss has nothing but a presumption, something imaginary, something hoped for. If some company had actually paid or offered to pay a price for 2G, and the govt. had rejected that and gave it to another party offering less, then that would be loss. Nothing like this happened. Yes sir, the BJP did blow this notional thing so much that it won 2014 elections.
who labours so hard at every half chance to announce to the world that he and his party are the sole custodians of the trust of all those with hyndu names, now wants to get into a political alignment with the DMK, which has a long history of severely mocking the hyndu religion and even has a history of publicly garlanding images of Sri Raman with chappals ??
Vow ! It would be real tough even for a liar as tenacious and determined as Modi to explain this one and put a spin into it !

Every Indian knows what was 2 G main share holder of Kalaignar TV was left out from the case saying she is not mentally stable to question or included just bec she is wife of a politician( one out of 4 w) similarly , if it has to be dismissed,,,one word dismissed petition by CBI might have beenexpected not this delayed,,,,drama
In the next step, the TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India) recommendations in May 2005 followed the UASL guidelines of 2003 wherein instead of the entry fee being pegged at ` 1,658 crores pan-India (the fee at which the UAS licenses were issued in 2008 and questioned by CAG which has further lead to a conjectural scam of ` 1.76 lakh crores) it recommended to further reduce the entry price of the licenses so as to reduce the tariffs and to increase the tele-density and the coverage. The TRAI specifically stated that the telecom services should not be treated as a source of revenue for the government and imposing the lower license fee on the service providers would encourage higher growth thereby reducing the tariffs and hence, increasing the revenues for the service providers.
Anyways, the UASL guidelines in 2005 continued the same entry fee of ` 1,658 crores pan-India as previously fixed by the UASL guidelines of 2003.
The above mentioned guidelines are still applicable and have not been amended. Therefore, all UAS licenses issued in 2008 are governed by the above said guidelines and there was no deviation from the stated policy of pricing the entry fee for the UAS licenses in 2008. Till date, apart from the one-time fee, the license holders are paying the specified percentage of the adjusted gross revenue (AGR) towards the license fee and the specified percentage of AGR towards the spectrum usage charges.
2G Rip-Off – A Muddle between the pricing and the allotment
“The moment there is a suspicion about a person’s motive, everything he does becomes tainted”
The phrase above goes very well in the favor of the current situation of Union Home Minister of India P. Chidambaram and in fact goes well on whole of the UPA government.
The 2G spectrum scam is supposed to be a scam worth ` 1.7 lakh crores, an amount that is being accounted as a loss to the exchequer. The credence among the masses is that in 2008, “instead” of auctioning the spectrum licenses to the telecom companies; the government “decided” to give away the licenses at a fixed amount of fee and in return received the kickbacks which could be as high as ` 1.75 lakh crores and that is why it is (the amount) repeatedly said so. Now, the question that comes into mind is that is this information really true or it is just press-ganged by the section of the media and the opposition as a ritual against the ruling government.
The question is “What exactly is the 2G Spectrum Scam”?
Well, it is not too tough to get into the conclusion and that too on the basis of the facts. Let’s flip through some pages and take a note of the telecom policies in the past and the present. The perception perceived is that the spectrum licenses for 2G were given away at the throw-away prices, whereas had the government opted for an auction route, it could have earned ` 1.75 lakh

crores as revenue out of the allotment, just the way it did from the auctions of 3G spectrum later. In fact it was after the auction of 3G spectrum that the questions were raised on the government for the methods of allotment opted and thereby triggering a huge loss to the exchequer.
Nevertheless, a government policy could be called successful only if it largely benefits the citizens of the country who are the end consumers, regardless of the revenue maximization of the government itself or the corporates involved.
Instead of increase in tele-density and growth of the telecom sector, the National Telecom Policy 1994 focused more on the revenue maximization leading to the ultimate failure of the policy and therefore, the National Telecom Policy 1999introduced amendments which allowed the existing operators to switch form the fixed license fee regime to revenue sharing regime upon the payment of one-time entry free. So, which meant that the operator will get license on the payment of one-time fee and further shall share the revenues with the government, which shall of course happen when the consumer will start using the services and the operators starts earning revenues, making it almost a win-win situation for everyone; however, the CAG had severely criticize this decision of the government in its report issues in the year 2000.

lindstrom chief of police, sweden has given clean chit to rajiv gandhi and amitabh bachchan in matter of receiving kickbacks in bofors case...so chew on that...it was this very lindstrom who was the whistleblower and made documents available to chitra subramanian and N ram which they continued to publish indian express...lindstrm did that because he was unable to make headway in bofors case in sweden...and now after decades of investigation he has said that he did not find a shred of evidence that rajiv or amithabh received any money on bofors deal...on the contrary he has acknowledged that the indian contingent who visited sweden wrongly tried to implaicate amitabh in the case because he was a friend of rajiv..also the person who was responsible for spreading this misinformation to sweden police were the current finance minister Arun Jaitley along with bhurelal...
