  • Did Chidambaram Subvert the Foreign Investment Promotion Board?
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Circumventing Institutions: Did Chidambaram Subvert the Foreign Investment Promotion Board? JAI BHATIA, ADVAIT RAO PALEPU Vol. 52, Issue No. 24, 17 Jun, 2017 Jai Bhatia ([email protected]) is a PhD student at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. Advait Rao Palepu ([email protected]) is an independent researcher. The raids on premises connected to former Union Finance Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram and his son Karti Chidambaram have attracted attention because of the allegations by the Central Bureau of Investigation, the Enforcement Directorate and Bharatiya Janata Party Member of Parliament Subramanian Swamy that the functioning of the soon-to-be defunct Foreign Investment Promotion Board was sought to be subverted. One major accusation against Chidambaram is that he manipulated the working of the FIPB to help the former Communications Minister Dayanidhi Maran in the Aircel–Maxis case. The EPW presents for the first time how this unusual deal was structured in a convoluted manner using preference shares. By World Economic Forum [CC BY-SA 2.0], via Wikimedia Commons ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 On 16 May, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) conducted search and seizure raids in four cities on the homes and offices of former Finance Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram’s son Karti Chidambaram. These raids were related to a probe by the CBI on a foreign investment approval granted to the Peter and Indrani Mukherjee owned INX Media by the Foreign Investment Promotion Board (FIPB). This clearance, it has been alleged by the CBI and others, was illegally obtained by the company.

  • REPORT on DILLI DARSHAN CLASS III “What We
    REPORT ON DILLI DARSHAN CLASS III “What we learn with pleasure, we never forget! “ Through educational school trips, students can have amazing learning experiences while they are having fun. Stepping away from their regular school environment opens up their minds and helps them retain information better. Keeping the above in mind, a Dilli Darshan trip was organized for the students of class III on 25th September 2019. The children were all enthusiastic and excited as they looked forward to visit Qutub Minar, India Gate, Teen Murti Bhavan and National Rail Museum along with spending a fun filled day with their friends. The first destination was the magnificent Qutub Minar, whose history lures a large number of tourists from all parts of the world. They learnt minute details about the inscriptions and architecture involved in the making of the grand tower. The next halt was at the India Gate situated at Rajpath. The children were acquainted with the importance of this prominent monument as it commemorates the names of the Indian soldiers who lost their lives in the First World War They were also informed about the significance of the Amar Jawan Jyoti, the burning flame which is considered immortal, to honour the sacrifice of the soldiers martyred in the war. Children curiously observed some of the important state buildings as the bus drove past Supreme Court, High Court, Secretariat buildings, Rashtrapati Bhawan and Parliament House. After a delectable lunch at the Bikanerwala, children visited the splendid Teen Murti Bhavan which was the residence of the first Prime Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru and has now been converted into a memorial.
