Am I missing something here? Why is he offering to resign when it was his dipshit nephew who took the bribe?
the Nephew of the Railway Minster was caught accepting a bribe for fixing a top level position in the Railway Board. The Railway Board is the highest decision making body in the Indian Railways and I think the Railway Minister has considerable say over who becomes a member.

I dare say' date=' this has to be the most corrupt govt. in our history. By far.[/quote'] Mind you so far most of the scams in public domain 2G, Coal, Thorium, Defence deals etc are mostly from 2004-09. Wonder what all we will get to hear in 2-3 years time about the noble deeds of UPA 2.

Soon as Congress minister took over Railways after a long absence.... Haha, didn't take long for a corruption scandal to seep into Railways Ministry too. Congress has become a filth infested party. PS: If the Bansal wasn't aware, who the feck would pay nearly Rs 1 cr without being sure of guaranteed results. Railways Minister PK Bansal is guilty as they come.

watching Aajtak right now - thry're showing something about how Pawan Kumar Bansal's company earned profit after he became a minister. The dialogues said by the reporter are right out of Bollywood movie - they're just hilarious :hysterical: Ex: Manmohan SIngh said a long time back "that money does not grow on trees" so the reporter says, "sahi keh rahe hain pradhan mantriji, paisa ped (tree) par nahi rail par ugta hai" "PK Bansal ko jab promotion mila toh unki company koi cactus toh thi nahi ki khilti nahi, array gulab ki tarah khili aur ek hi saal mein profit increase ho gaya" :cantstop:

I heard somewhere that these channels go to the National School of Drama to pick anchors so its no wonder that a majority of the anchors on Hindi News channels try to act and say filmy dialogues.

That guy who does 'Sanasani', a crime show on Star News for the last 8-9 years, is a NSD graduate. Some other NSD passouts are employed as a part of content writing team and voice over artists. But none of the mainstream news anchors I know are from NSD.

there are a few anchors from NSD and other film academies but you're right, NSD guys (and people from other film academies) primarily work as writing staff. India TV makes the best use of these guys.......it seems as if they hire only actors and no reporters!!!

Mumbai: Trouble for Railways Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal seems to be only mounting. New information and documents available with NDTV raises questions on whether the Railway Minister appointed his family accountant, Sunil Kumar Gupta, as a director of a public sector bank in 2007 -- and, whether Mr Gupta influenced loans of nearly Rs. 50 crore to businesses run by members of the Bansal family

Does this implicate Manmahon Singh too :hmmm: Can't see MMS assigned as PM in 2014.
MMS has been directly implicated in Coalgate scandal but he won't resign - I'm afraid he has now become as shameless as the rest of his Govt. He obviously won't be the PM candidate in 2014 - he will be over 80 years old and would have been PM for 10 years so I'm quite certain he wouldn't continue.

Apparently some mediawallahs have got hold of a CD with taped conversation of Bansal, his nephews and Railway officials talking of sharing of commissions etc. Someone from CBI leaked it a couple of days ago. Hence this sudden piousness from UPA to drop the ministers. Hearring stories about names of many top politicians figuring in that tape. And on cue, Subbu Swamy has threatened to go to court to reveal the contents of this tape if its not made public soon.
