The English proverb which says, "the pot calling the kettle black” perfectly applies to Nirav Modi who defrauded PNB. He has the audacity to write to PNB in which he blames it for destroying his brand and our astonishment he adds that the bank has shut the doors on his ability to repay the debt. What a courage! But if we seriously go to the depth of the matter soon we will admit that it is only our easy going system in which criminals easily find a chance to commit such of these notorious crimes. It is also shocking that the political parties instead of addressing the situation objectively, are only indulging in mudslinging .
The funny thing about the banking fraud that is rocking the country is that no one is accountable. The FM remained silent at first and then blamed the auditors, for the PNB fraud, as if he was just an onlooker and thank god he didn’t blame RBI. I think, in India apart from the game of cricket another game that catches its fancy is blame game, which is a national pastime. His cabinet colleague Ravishankar Prasad blamed it on Congress which was the easiest way as he was seeing Indira’s BankNationalisation, as the reason for the mess. Nirmala Sita Raman Defence Minister, gave a different version. Let us admit that unforgettable scams marked the government’s of all Congress PMs from Indira’s time. Manmohansingh personally most respected for his unquestionable integrity and incorruptibility, was a finance minister in 1992 when Harshad Mehta triggered a Rs 4000/crores banking scam siphoning of money from interbank transactions. Manmohan ji as PM allowed some abominably corrupt ministers to flourish. So, my point is, the Congress scams do they justify BJP’s Scams? I feel there is no way the government of the day can disassociate itself from the present scandal.
Those who have eyes to see can see that scandals of this kind cannot happen without the knowledge and cooperation or participation of politicians in power. Equally relevant is the question is could Nirav Modi have escaped from India without official collusion!
We have seen Nirav Modi has politely declined to cooperate with CBI in its enquiries against him. But why not? Is Vijay Mallya cooperating with CBI? Has any one in our great country dared to touch Lalith Modi? Irrespective of party in power, situation in our country doesn't seem to improve.
