Dear Friends: Orissa mining scam may be worth 3 lakh crore, per today’s CNN-IBN, news. It is now coming to light following the Karnataka & Goa scams, which have started taking toll. Odisha scam was first exposed in 2008 but yet no one is in jail. And like 2G three years(2008 to 2011) have passed. Some very important issues have been raised in the 1st debate where Sunita Narain & Prashant Bhusan & others raise very pertinent issues. I hope and wish some of the scam stars should go to jail. Also in light of the info now available – the SEZ port to POSCO should be junked and the export and re-import of Ore should be canned. Best wishes, Sandip
Mausa you are right, we also are waiting that players get behind bars. As the opposition is also involved in the same scam, things do not mount here in Odisha.
