MINISTERS WHO DID NOT SUPPORT RIL WERE SHOWN THE DOOR:Two petroleum ministers during the last 10 years, Mani Shankar Aiyar and S Jaipal Reddy, who did not work according to the wishes of the RIL, were shifted out of the ministry.
Mr Aiyar did not agree to the RIL argument that in order to double the production the investment will have to be increased four times and was shifted out.
Similarly, Mr Reddy, who in May 2012 issued a show cause notice to the RIL on the legal opinion given by the then Solicitor General Rohinton Nariman that the company had failed to fulfil its obligations and had indulged in wilful breach of the Production Sharing Agreement, therefore why should its contract not be cancelled – he had to lose the ministry.
