Adarsh scam report indicts three former chief ministers
The judicial report on the Adarsh scam was tabled in the Maharashtra Assembly today. The state government summarily rejected the report which indicts three former Chief Ministers, including the incumbent union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde, sparking a wave of protests by the opposition. Senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley called the government's move an attempt to bury the truth and called on the Congress party to come clean on corruption. Can the Congress come clean after this latest corruption scandal? We discuss.
India toughens stand: 'domestic help covered by our law'
India toughens its stance over the case in a US court against Indian consular official Devyani Khobragade, and the treatment meted out to her. The government has objected to the legal proceedings in the United States, saying that Khobragade's erstwhile domestic help Sangeeta Richard is a deemed employee of the Indian government, and that US labour laws and minimum wages laws do not apply to her. Has the diplomatic row over the alleged mistreatment of the consular official taken over the issue of alleged underpayment to Khobragade's domestic help? We discuss.
