    -OM/RG/6.00/4B SHRI A.K. ANTONY (contd.): This is the Report of the Press Information Bureau, Government of India, dated 11 th March, 2013. It says, "The Government has blacklisted following six firms for a period of ten years by the Ministry of Defence I.D. No.310, April, 2012: Singapore Technologies, Israeli Military Industries Limited, Rheinmetall Air Defence (RAD), Zurich, M/s Corporation Defence, Russia, etc." These are all powerful multinational companies, and these include two Indian companies as well. We didn't show mercy. When corruption was proved and the CBI recommended that we should take action and blacklist them, we blacklisted six companies. This happened for the first time that six companies, at a stretch, were blacklisted. Otherwise, some years back, one company was blacklisted. So, not sitting on procedures, we also took action and sent a message to the world, sent a message to the arms dealers, that India would not tolerate corruption. We proved that merciless strong action would be taken. That was our message at that time. Sir, this is as far as the background is concerned. Coming to this particular thing, so many friends quoted so many things including CAG Reports and newspaper reports. In the last few weeks, many people were trying to make clouds. I would like to present a few facts after which I will also table them in the House. This is also the official release of the Press Information Bureau relating to the Ministry of Defence, titled, 'Acquisition of AW-101 Choppers for IAF: The Facts'.

Imports of hot rolled coil (HRC), a benchmark product, from Korea surged 125 per cent and from Japan, 72 per cent, in 2011-12 over the previous year. While the flood is likely to continue further, experts say this is not just hurting the domestic steel industry in a weak market, but, in the short term, could be a disincentive for foreign direct investment (FDI). A slew of Japanese companies — Kobe, JFE, Sumitomo and Nippon — are either a part of the India story, in some way or other, or are actively looking at it, while South Korea's Posco is still waiting in the wings. All these companies are in a way incentivised to sell the steel produce in their country and flood the Indian market. It will act as disincentive for these global steel majors to invest in producing steel in India.

  • India-Iraq Relations India and Iraq Have Throughout Enjoyed Enduring
    India-Iraq Relations India and Iraq have throughout enjoyed enduring political, economic and cultural ties. Basra was for the Arab world not only the market par excellence of the Indian merchandise including textiles, spices, foodgrains and other commodities but also of the famous pearl trade that flourished mainly through the Indian traders and jewelers. The Indian soldiers and railway workers through whom the British colonial power controlled and kept its dominion connected with the Arab world, particularly Iraq, have left an imprint in the region that many Iraqis still proudly claim their Indian ethnic descent. India and Iraq have even shared agricultural practices. The breed of the southern Iraqi jamus or the water buffalo had been brought by Harun Al-Rashid from India. The Iraqi philosophers and sufi saints like Hasan al Basri, Junaid Al Baghdadi and Sheikh Behlul had such an impact on the spiritual movements in India that Guru Dev Nanak Saheb came personally to Baghdad to deliberate on the ontological and the epistemological questions with Sheikh Behlul who hosted him for nearly three months. Who does not know the enormous following Sheikh Syed Abdul Qadir Jeelani has in India where he is referred to either as Dastagir Saheb or Ghous-al-Azam. On the other hand, Indians were among the foremost to patronize the shrines and sarai khanas of the heritage of Islam’s primeval martyrdom at Karbala. Thousands of Indians visit the shrines of Imam Hussein and Imam Abbas in Karbala every year and also the shrine of Abdul Qadir Jeelani. The respect for each other’s strength has been mutual between India and Iraq.
