Maybe it's the ex-finance minister Chiddhu?

Edit: okay it's not Chiddhu...his wife lives here. didnt see that part.
 
Just got to know, PM went to siachin without his usual SPG cover.
 
this whole Khattar is the first non-JAT episode reminds me of the caste influence in our politics.

I know I sound hypocritical when I have a caste name as my surname and username, and I know it is part of realpolitik and all that.

But I am still disappointed how caste still plays a big part in politics and in extent a lot of things.

I bet 99% of CPI aren't athiests

I remember when I went to Sabarimala in 2003. Among our group, we had two from Kozhikode who were part of the Communist party :P

Tamil Nadu BJP membership spikes - The Hindu

Party’s Organising Secretary S. Mohanrajulu told The Hindu that the State BJP had seen an increase in membership of 3.5 lakh since May 2014, when it stormed to power in New Delhi.
Till May, we had about 7 lakh members across Tamil Nadu. In the last five months, we have added another 3.5 lakh. This is a significant rise for a party that was seen as a marginal player here,” he said.

They have been running a campaign, on cellphones and the web asking people to join, looks like it is paying off.

I have a good feeling that this MP is K.V.P. Ramachandra Rao (K. V. P. Ramachandra Rao - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This man is VERY CORRUPT, he was a good friend of YSR(perhaps the most corrupt CM AP ever had). He is supposed(as per gossip) to have assisted him in facilitating defections of netas to the AP congress from TDP and TRS. Also he is supposed to have taken part in YSR's scams,took his own share too from those scams.

According to gossip, after YSR's death, he was going to join YSRCP[the party formed by YSR's Son Jagan Mohan Reddy). But supposedly Ahmed Patel threatened and blackmailed him with some information.(some say it was about Black money)Due to which he stayed in the Congress

Whether his name comes or not in this list, I am sure that he DEFINITELY has some Black money.

What do a Ukrainian millionaire and a Rajya Sabha MP have in common?

Washington: Ukrainian industrialist Dmitry Firtash, a member of India's parliament and four others were indicted by a U.S. grand jury for their suspected role in an international corruption scheme, the U.S. Justice Department said on Wednesday.

The indictment, which was returned under seal in June 2013, was made public on Wednesday, a few weeks after prosecutors said they planned to ask Austria to extradite Firtash.

Firtash, who is one of Ukraine's most influential oligarchs, Rajya Sabha member K.V.P. Ramachandra Rao, and the other defendants participated in a scheme to bribe Indian government officials in order to gain access to minerals used to make titanium-based products, prosecutors said.

The scheme allegedly involved $18 million in bribes to secure licenses in Andhra Pradesh, for a project expected to generate $500 million in annual sales, the U.S. government said.

U.S. prosecutors said they have jurisdiction over the case because the defendants used U.S. financial institutions to transfer the bribes and because the defendants had planned to sell the titanium products to an unnamed American company based in Chicago.

Some of the defendants were also charged with violating the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which bars bribes to officials of foreign governments in exchange for business.

"Fighting global corruption is part of the fabric of the Department of Justice," the acting head of the Justice Department's criminal division, David O'Neil, said in a statement.

Firtash, whose first name is also spelled "Dmytro," was arrested in Vienna last month and was released from custody after posting 125 million euros bail.

In a statement, an official of Firtash's Group DF company said there is no truth to the accusations.

"It is not a coincidence that the U.S. is trying to extradite our chairman at the moment when Mr. Firtash is needed for the economic and political reconstruction of Ukraine," Group DF deputy chairman Robert Shetler-Jones said.

The detention of Firtash, whose business concerns in gas trading and chemicals thrived under Ukraine's ousted president Viktor Yanukovich, has coincided with a sharp escalation in the country's political crisis that pits the West against Russia.

The allegations at the heart of the Justice Department's case date back to 2006, when a Group DF unit set up a joint venture with the government of Andhra Pradesh to mine several minerals, according to the indictment.

Firtash allegedly met with local officials including the then chief minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, and his advisor Rao, the lawmaker who is charged in the case, in order to discuss the project and authorized the bribes.


According to prosecutors, Firtash then directed his employees to create documents to cover up the money trail.

Rao solicited bribes for himself and others in return for approving licenses for the project, prosecutors said.

A representative of the Indian embassy in Washington did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The Justice Department said it is seeking Firtash to forfeit his interests in Group DF Limited and its assets.

The probability of my guess being correct is increasing:woot:
