Narendra Modi’s incorruptibility | Millennium Post
Yet, ‘all our interlocutors acknowledge that Modi is a modest man who, unlike many elected officials in India, has not used his position to enrich himself or his family. Most contacts also say that he has purged the state administration of petty corruption at the mid- and lower levels of the bureaucracy. However, several people tell us that big ticket corruption is still common.’ Now comes the meaty party, which has (or lacks) as much truth value as ‘Modi-is-incorruptible’ line: ‘Journalist Javed Rahmatullah claimed that Reliance Industries Ltd. (RIL) paid a large bribe for permission to expand its refinery in Jamnagar. The money went into the BJP’s party coffers, Rahmatullah claimed, and not to Modi or any other individual. Other contacts have told us that business money flows to the BJP in Gujarat, but nobody had been this specific. We have been unable to verify Rahmatullah’s claim.’
If we wait a bit, some fan may soon tweet: Modi is incorruptible, says Mukesh Ambani.
Keep aside your AAP is joke comment. I have seen how they worked in delhi. Delhi which is already smart city now voted for AAP. Like this comment i can also say so many things to BJP. Bhartheeya Jumla Party we have already seen how they were taking anti-national stand in every project. One of the big neusense in the case of this Rafale deal is subbu swami.
By the way, Every one who is not bhakth can easily know that source of party fund for BJP/congress comes from where. Go interact with local MLA, just see how they solve the issue which need money.
By the way, when it comes to congres or AAP you can run away saying they are corrupt without proving anything. when it comes to BJP only if court says you will blive
Keep side corruption, its not hard to guess who murdered Haren Pandya.

2000: The Indian Air Force expresses interest in buying medium multi-role combat aircraft to replace Soviet-era MiG-21s. Over the years, the ageing MiG-21s have been involved in multiple accidents.
2001: The Indian Air Force issues requests for information for 126 combat jets. But there is little activity for the next six years.
2007: The Indian government issues tenders for 126 MMRCAs, for an estimated cost of Rs42,000 crore ($6.7 billion, now). The request for proposal is issued to six vendors: Russia’s MIG-35 (RAC MiG); Sweden’s JAS-39 (Saab); French Rafale (Dassault); American F-16 Falcon (Lockheed Martin); Boeing’s F/A-18 Super Hornet and Eurofighter Typhoon (made by a consortium of British, German, Spanish and Italian firms).
2008: US majors Boeing and Lockheed Martin, Russia’s United Aircraft Corporation, France’s Dassault, European consortium’s European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company (EADS) and Saab submit their bids.
2011: The defence ministry says it will start discussions with Dassault and EADS. The ministry tells American companies Boeing and Lockheed Martin that their proposals have been rejected.
2012: India shortlists Dassault, after it submits the lowest bids for the deal. According to the RFP, the winner of the contract would supply 18 of the 126 aircraft to the Indian Air Force in 36 months from its facilities, and the remaining would be produced at Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd plant in Bangalore.
2013: Negotiations continue during the year.
2014: India decides to put the deal on hold due to budgetary constraints until 2015. Dassault remains hopeful.
2015: After three years of negotiations with Dassault, Modi announces on April 10 that he has ordered 36 “ready-to-fly” Rafale fighter jets from Dassault. A day later, Parrikar indicates that the move is the right direction, and says that in future India would deal directly with the French government instead of the aviation company.
How lengthy is the procedure, i wonder why only UPA had to take the blame for delay! When 2000 to 2004 nothing happened.
