The Lalu Yadav connection to Satyam Fraud story

An article in the DNA newspaper points to the Bihar connection at work in putting the Satyam Fraud case on the back-burner. Pointing out that some key players involved in the Satyam Investigations have the Lalu Yadav connection, it says:

“The man at the centre of it all, company affairs minister Prem Chand Gupta, is from the RJD, (the former ruling party in Bihar and now a key Congress ally at the Center). The Andhra Pradesh DGP is a Yadav from Bihar, S.S.P. Yadav. The policeman handling the Andhra CID probe is inspector-general of police V.S.K. Kaumudi. When he was with the CBI some years back, Kaumudi probed Lalu’s fodder scam. He obviously knows a thing or two about Lalu’s secrets. Lalu and the Andhra CM, thus, have an interest in helping each other out….


The above article was written by R. Jagannathan, the managing editor of DNA. Remember, there is a Congress government in Andhra Pradesh. Read the whole article here.

It has been 12 years since Lalu Yadav was charge-sheeted in the Fodder scam in Bihar, which took place when he was the Chief Minister.

Lalu is preparing for a second stint as a Union Railway Minister and hearings on case threaten to go on for eternity in Ranchi.

Does a similar fate await Raju and his accomplices?
Already, they are enjoying five-star luxury inside the jail. Raju is a man with "social status", you see.

Lesson#1: If you have to go to jail, go after stealing a thousand crore not thousand rupees.
Lesson#2: Behind every great fraud, there is a politician.
