Prannoy Roy the psephologist doesn't understand finance.He finances NDTV stock buyback in 2007 by taking a loan from Indiabulls Finance at humongous interest rate.Then realises the folly,pledges ENTIRE personal shareholding in NDTV to ICICI Bank in 2008 to pay off Indiabulls loan Image
Then realises pledging entire shareholding is risky, so borrows from Motabhai Ambani (VCPL) in 2009 to pay off ICICI. But Motabhai is shrewd, he funds Roy structuring warrants convertible into RRPR equity into the loan. RRPR holds 29% in NDTV.
Ambani sits on the warrants for over 10 years. Circa 2022 another Motabhai (Adani) enters the media space by acquiring 49% in Raghav Bahl's Quint (same Bahl whom Ambani had ousted from Network 18). Unlike Ambani, Adani decides to consolidate.
He eyes NDTV by purchasing VCPL from Ambani and immediately exercises the RRPR warrants giving him 29% in NDTV. Since 25% or more has thereby been acquired, he makes an open offer for 26% more under SEBI SAST regulations. NDTV & Roys caught napping..

When Modi came to Delhi in 2014 he thought he'll create a Gujarat model.

Kept talking about it.

He realised that the:
1. Judiciary was still with Congress.
2. Media was with Congress.
3. Bureaucracy was with Congress.
He just had Lok Sabha with him, not even the entire Rajya Sabha.

BJP tried to nail Vadra, Raja, Kanimozhi and P. Chidambaram.

They also tried to touch the others.

But they couldn't.

Modi wasn't expected to last beyond one term

But they didn't know the crafty Modi mind.
He pulled out a couple of magic public pulling events and he became a huge crowd gatherer in India & with the NRI crowd.

He promised change.

He promised to break the Congress loot maar ideology which kept India a poor country but made the Congress leaders rich.

सोनिया गांधी उर्फ एंटोनियो माइनो भारत की अल्बर्टो फुजिमोरी है..... बस फर्क यह है कि फुजिमोरी 32 साल जेल की सजा काट रहा है और एंटोनियो माइनो अपने चमचों के दम पर मौज कर रही है।

चाणक्य ने कहा था एक विदेशी या एक विदेशी मां-बाप की संतान कभी देशभक्त नहीं हो सकती ।
अल्बर्टो फुजिमोरी के दादा-दादी जापान से रोजगार की तलाश में पेरू आ गए थे पेरू में ही फुजिमोरी का जन्म हुआ... फिर अल्बर्टो फुजिमोरी पेरू यूनिवर्सिटी में इंजीनियरिंग डिपार्टमेंट में प्रोफेसर बने राजनीति में आए।
अल्बर्टो फुजिमोरी पहले बौद्ध थे लेकिन जब राजनीति में आए तब उन्होंने ईसाई धर्म स्वीकार कर लिया ताकि पेरू की जनता को मूर्ख बनाया जा सके जैसे एंटोनियो माइनो बनाती है ।

और फिर देखते ही देखते अलबर्टो फुजिमोरी पेरू के राष्ट्रपति बन गए

भ्रष्टाचाऱ्यांची हतबलता.

ईडीने संजय राऊतची विस्तारित चौकशी भक्कम पुराव्यांवर आधारित आहे. ही MVA ची मृत्यूची घंटा असेल.

10 वर्षांनंतर नॅशनल हेराल्ड प्रकरणात कारवाई सुरू झाली आहे.

2015 मध्ये आई आणि मुलाला जामीन मिळाला. तपास बारकाईने करण्यात आला. एक पानही सोडले नाही.
ममता बॅनर्जी, केजरीवाल आणि हेमंत सोरेन यांचाही ईडीच्या चौकशीच्या यादीत समावेश आहे.

ममता बॅनर्जी यांना सहा महिन्यांपूर्वी याची जाणीव झाली. राज्यपाल धनखर यांच्याशी लढा या मुद्द्यावर होता की ते फायलींची मागणी करत होते
आणि बंगालच्या शिक्षण विभागाच्या नेमक्या भ्रष्ट पद्धतींचा तपशीलवार शोध घेत होते..

हे लक्षात घेणे महत्त्वाचे आहे की श्री धनखर, जे सुप्रीम कोर्टाचे वकील देखील आहेत, राज्याचे राज्यपाल या नात्याने, फायलींची मागणी करण्याचा आणि त्यांचे पुनरावलोकन करण्याचा कायदेशीर अधिकार होता.

Great Scam
WHEAT PROCUREMENT
2007

Government allowed private traders to buy wheat from farmers, resulting in a paucity of wheat to stock FCI granaries. By July 2007 the shortage at FCI was large enough to require import of wheat at a much higher price of 320-360 USD/ton.
Taking advantage of this, traders who had domestically purchased wheat at 900 INR/ton earlier, were now offering the same to FCI at 1,300 INR/ton.
Sugar prices in 2009 - Opposition parties,
including the BJP and the CPI(M) accused Sharad Pawar of engineering a steep rise in the price of sugar to the advantage of hoarders and importers.

Two years back, India was the most Fearful place for Muslims ever.

Alarmed at intolerance in India, Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao , Javed Akhtar, Nasiruddin Shah talking about leaving country'..Fear, unease growing among Muslims in India, says outgoing vice president Hamid Ansari
The “Intolerant” India has progressed so much in last 2 years that, we are suddenly the only place Rohingya Muslims can find…The “Intolerant” India has progressed so much in last 2 years that, we are suddenly the only place Rohingya Muslims can find…..
Good Progress for a country where Muslims live in a perpetual FEAR.

But my humanity is limited to just this case.

I shall not talk about any other atrocity committed on any other race ever.

Wait!

Rakesh Jhunjhunwala - the other Big Bull..dies today at age of 62

He had invested in Star Health, the company in which layman invest for their own medical needs. But alas..

"I am a heavy alcoholic consuming 6 pegs daily,Smoker with 25 cigarettes per day,Eat like a pig ...
and no physical exercise...
He only revealed these habits in one of his interviews.

So in a way he had decided his own fate.

In the process his blood sugars went haywire,
developed ESRD ( End Stage Reanal Disease),
survived on HD ( haemodialysis ) till his ultimate demise.
Had a bad diabetic foot.

He was unable to rise from his chair even in presence of PM Modiji, for which he was trolled badly, until real reason for his act was revealed.

He grossly ignored his heath while amassing immense wealth,
41 thousand crore ₹ to be precise.
