FIR against Ambani and Federal ministers by AAP –

I hope most of us would already be aware of the controversy over Reliance KG-D6 block. The issue had been in the public domain since 2005 when the differences between 2 BIG brothers came into light and Supreme Court mediated the scuffle by stating. “The government owns the gas till it reaches its ultimate consumer and parties must restrict their negotiation within the conditions of the government policy”.

I will take just a few seconds more to remind you of some of the details from where this controversy started.

In June 2004, National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) invited bids for supply of gas for its 2600 MW power plant in Kawas and Gandhar. Reliance Industries, hopeful of starting production of gas by the time NTPC’s power plant is ready, bid for the project and was awarded it as the lowest ‘techno-commercial’ bidder. A Letter of Intent (LOI) was issued to Reliance Industries to supply 132 trillion units of gas per annum to NTPC for 17 years at a price of $2.34 per mmBtu. Reliance Industries refused to sign the contract for supply of gas. Jairam Ramesh, the Minister of Power in a written reply to a question in Lok Sabha in 2009 said that “After issuance of LOI, RIL did not come forward to sign the Gas Sale and Purchase Agreement and sought major changes in the draft GSPA. In spite of all the efforts (by NTPC) RIL did not sign the GSPA agreed during the bidding process. NTPC dragged Reliance to Bombay High Court on December 20, 2005 but unfortunately the case that has dragged on. The case after nine years is still sub judice. 

I am not getting in to the technical details of the issue (that is for the next time). I am limiting it to FIR by AAP and the need for it .

9 Years that’s a very long time. I would like to assert that in India we have got, too, many Holy cows. I am afraid to say even our constitution and Judiciary belongs to that Holy cow category. Why no one is asking any question that why is this taking such a long time? By the way its out of context but Lalu got convicted only after most of the cows jiska chara usne kha liya tha , died . Long live the cows of India.

Anyway I will  focus on media like questions that why was AAP in a hurry to file a FIR when the case is already pending in Supreme Court. “The inpatient bunch AAP” they don’t have any respect for Judiciary, Constitution bloody anarchist. (I am being satirical by the way). Why did they got up suddenly and started blaming RIL. Kejriwal (The inexperienced bunch) didn’t know how to govern and hence they were looking for some excuse to run away.  Bhagode

By the way why did people like TSR Subramanian, EAS Sharma, RH Tahiliani and Kamini Jaiswal went to AAP government in first place? They are eminent personalities and they should have waited for the Supreme Court verdict. Vested interest what else?  May be they ,too,  will make their political debut . anyway AAP is giving tickets to all these people who are raising this absurd complaints about everyone . “ AAP ki behti ganga mein haat dho lete hein waise Ganga se yaad aaya “ Raam their Ganga maili ho gayi  ,ab itna haath dhooge to gandi hogi hi ”  Now the intention of these four people are clear we will move to next interesting question .

What should AAP have done after getting written complaint from these people ?

Had they known the governance before taking any step they would have replied categorically –
The case is pending with Supreme Court since last 9 years please wait we cannot do anything about it.Then they would have consulted eminent lawyers like Mr. Kheitley (name changed pun intended) and checked first that if they can ask ACB to file an FIR against some federal ministers who seems to be involved in collusion? Will it be an attack on constitution if a state government receives a complaint against some federal ministers and plans to take it ahead?  But Kejriwal is an angry young political man and angry young political man didn’t care about all this and asked ACB to file a FIR, bloody anrchist . ( I liked the Tweet of Suhel Seth ( Jackass of all trade and master of all asses too) “ Kejriwal is so angry that some day he will arrest himself. Wah wah maza aa gya suheil sahib kya baat kahi hai . )
 I feel sometime ignorance is bliss and taking advantage of that ignorance I must say that in this country even a common man has right to ask to file a FIR against anyone in the country based on even prima fascia of charge and it will not be an attack on constitution or federal structure and if it is then we have to make necessary change in our Holy Cow.

Was it in jurisdiction of AAP government to file a FIR on matter which was between private party and federal government?

No pun intended I think this is the most absurd question to be asked?  Gas is not owned by even GOI they are the caretaker.  It belongs to India and India comprises of we the people the very basis of existence of our Holy cow , The constitution. And now since I am clear that it belongs to every Indian then any Indian can file a FIR against any one if they have even any prima fascia evidence of involvement of wrong doings. If the same is done by a sitting CM then ,too, its not anarchy or lack of governance or insult of constitution.

Anyway come to politics and let’s see what could have been their motive to file a FIR?

Oh it’s a sitter. Everyone will get 10/10. Lok Sabha Election Mudda . APP had not got anything sensational in its armory to Hog the limelight in media for forthcoming loksabha election. What could have been better agenda than attacking the most powerful business house in the country? So they colluded with their A team congress to create an event to give some sensational breaking news story to them on Platter and their team A obliged by offering them a story . The Story was increase in Gas pricing from first April 2014 when UPA government tenure was almost getting over. What important thing timing is. UPA regime will be over just after a month from April and AAP Govt will resign on 14th Feb and start their Chunavi bigul from Rhotak on 23rd Feb and their main focus would be RIL gas pricing.  

Jai ho …….

  1. Hey, Although I don't know much abt gas prices, and its exact valuation, the only thing that I can state is, its fine if AK has an issue and files an FIR, however maybe he does not have the right to pronounce a judgment purely based on his FIR. Touting that Mukesh Ambani is looting the country, may not be correct from his public position, given that the matter is stil sub judice.
