RS: And your reply was that whatever Raja wants will be done, nobody can intervene.
A Raja: See, PM has a very big office. There is a joint secy for every dept who looks after everything. It's not a joke that I'll cheat the PM. The addl secretary told the court in front of the CBI, the content of the reply sent by Raja is by and large is correctly reflected in accordance with the policy and statute of the dept
RS: They are all scared by you.
A Raja: Why? How can they be scared by me? I was in jail that time. I was not given hearing opportunity by CAG and SC. Even media did not give me that opportunity.
RS: CAG said that Raja issued 85 licenses to 13 companies that were ineligible.
A Raja: Very good question. CBI says the companies are ineligible. The Law Ministry wrote a letter to the judge and CBI saying the companies are eligible. What nonsense is going on in the country? Two limbs of the government are taking different positions.
RS: But everyone believes that the policy of first come , first serve basis was to hel and support those who bribed you.
A Raja: I was arrested on Feb 02 2011. On 11 Feb, the TOI published a story that said that Raja has 3000 crores stacked abroad. I took the newspaper to the judge and said that I want to file a case saying that if CBI and other agencies could prove that I had even Rs 1 disproportionate to my known source of income then I'll not fight the case and I will live my entire life in jail. In 2013, CBI admitted before the court that Raja doesn't have a single pie overseas.
