If you look back on the Nehru era, it is clear that while Nehru talked a great deal about socialism, he never did anything to really affect the business interests. Despite Nehru's public castigations of business, his particular brand of socialism did not require annihilation of private sector. Nehru, in fact was a close friend of industrialists like Shri Ram, Singhania and Tata. Though Indira Gandhi too displayed her socialist leanings, she had many industrialists in her close circle, the most prominent among them Mr. Swaraj Paul. Similarly Rajiv Gandhi had Dhiru Bhai Ambani as his buddy and it is said that Dhiru's polyester yarn monopoly was established during Rajiv's tenure. And Dhiru's two sons Mukesh and Anil Ambani are said to have had friendly relations with Rajiv's wife Sonia and exerted great pressure on her party's tamed Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in order to have exclusive rights over gas basins (Krishna-Godavari) and higher price for the gas extracted. Allegations have been leveled against Manmohan Singh of changing ministerial portfolios at the behest of the Reliance group. It has been claimed that the group deliberately 'squatted' on reserves of natural gas and curtailed production in anticipation of higher prices that are administered by the government, to the detriment of the interests of the country's people. -
Institutional Corruption: Few Issues
IIMB-WP N0. 516 WORKING PAPER NO: 516 Institutional Corruption: Few Issues Murali Patibandla Professor Corporate Strategy & Policy Indian Institute of Management Bangalore Bannerghatta Road, Bangalore – 5600 76 Ph: 080-26993039 [email protected] Year of Publication – May 2016 1 IIMB-WP N0. 516 Institutional Corruption: Few Issues Abstract: Institutional corruption is defined as an act by a public or a private agent that can be justifiable legally but still is corrupt. This arises out of missing institutions, laws and regulations. Furthermore, ability of powerful agents in influencing law making and implementing regulation can be a source of institutional corruption. This paper brings forth a few issues of institutional corruption and it presents qualitative empirics in the case of exploitation of non-renewable natural resources in the Indian context. Keywords: Illegal and Legal Corruption; Institutions; Exploitation of Non-renewable Natural Resources 2 IIMB-WP N0. 516 1. Introduction Corruption is generally defined as ‘misuse of public office for private gain’. Constitution of a country broadly defines rights and obligations of the public and the framework of the legislature in making laws and regulation and independent judiciary to interpret and enforce the constitution. When one says ‘broadly defined’, it implies certain degree of discretionary powers in the hands of the legislature and judiciary in making and enforcing laws. The degree of discretion could be a source of corruption in a country. On the other hand, missing institutions, laws and autonomous regulatory bodies can be a source of corruption. An example is the absence of autonomous regulatory bodies in regulating exploitation of non-renewable resources. -

The idea is to move towards a gas-based economy. The stated objective of the new policy is to prescribe a standard procedure to discover the market price of gas to be sold in the market by producers through a competitive process, permit affiliates to participate in the bidding process for sale of gas, and allow marketing freedom to certain field development plans (FDPs) where the production sharing contracts already provide pricing freedom. This document looks at the current scenario and different market outlooks, and subsequently outlines the claims and promises made by the Indian government. -
