Gujarat gas deal a bigger scam than 2G; both BJP, Congress involved: Kejriwal
New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday took on Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi over the Tehelka report alleging irregularities in the sale of stake worth Rs 20,000 crore in Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation's (GSPC) gas exploration project in the Krishna Godavari Basin (KG), which the report alleged, was sold to a foreign company for virtually nothing.

"In August 2002, two companies bid with government for the Krishna-Godavari Basin and gas well worth Rs 20,000 crore was given to two companies for free. What was the selection process for these two companies?" asked Kejriwal.

"There was no bidding. Modi said that GeoGlobal has been engaged for technical assistance. But GeoGlobal and Jubilant Enpro Private Limited were given two wells in the KG Basin for free," Kejriwal added. "Jean Paul Roy is the owner of GeoGlobal. We demand an investigation on him. This scam is bigger than the 2G scam," he said.

Arvind Kejriwal said that the Narendra Modi government flouted rules to sell stake in the KG Basin to two companies.
Kejriwal alleged that the BJP and the Congress-led UPA were both involved in the scam. "Not only Narendra Modi, but the UPA too allotted 10 per cent gas wells to GeoGlobal. Bikaner gas wells were also given to GeoGlobal. Modi had written to Central government in 2010 asking for the cancellation of contract with GeoGlobal. The letter is lying with the Centre for the last two years."

"Why didn't the Congress raise the issue for the last nine years?" Kejriwal asked.

Kejriwal also questioned Modi's alleged links with the Adani Group, asking why the conglomerate was given acres of land at Rs 1 per square metre when the prevailing market rate was Rs 300 per square metre.

"The Modi government gave 14,306 acres of land to Adani at the rate of Rs 1 per square metre, where as market rate was Rs 300 per square metre. But when the IAF asked Gujarat for land, they were told that they would have to pay Rs 88 per square metre. The PM had to intervene to ensure allotment of land to IAF," Kejriwal alleged.

Kejriwal continued, "The Gujarat government bought electricity from Adani at the rate of Rs 5.50 in 2007 even though the state-owned Gujarat Mineral Development Corporation (GMDC) had offered to provide electricity at Rs 2.25 in short term merchandise. This offer was ignored by the Modi government," Kejriwal added, alleging that the GMDC chairman was later transferred at the behest of Adani Group, which had started exploiting the Gujarat government for coal blocks.

"Adani started blackmailing the Gujarat government over coal mines. The GMDC assured Adani that they will be provided coal and the state government then entered into an agreement with Adani to provide electricity, that too at Rs 5.50 per unit. The matter was raised in the Assembly last year," said Kejriwal.

On January 30, 1948 Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated by a religious fanatic. Capturing the grief of the people of India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru said "the light has gone out of our lives". Blaming religious extremism for Gandhi ji's assassination, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel said "The speeches of the Sangh leaders are poisonous. It is as a result of this venom that Mahatma Gandhi has been assassinated. The followers of the Sangh have celebrated Gandhiji’s assassination by distributing sweets”

Following Mahatma Gandhi's assassination in 1948 by a former member[19] of the RSS, Nathuram Godse, many prominent leaders of the RSS were arrested and RSS as an organisation was banned on 4 February 1948. A Commission of Inquiry into Conspiracy to murder of Gandhi was set and its report was published by India's Ministry of Home Affairs in the year 1970. Accordingly Justice Kapur Commission[46] noted the following:

...RSS as such were not responsible for the murder of Mahatma Gandhi, meaning thereby that one could not name the organisation as such as being responsible for that most diabolical crime, the murder of the apostle of peace. It has not been proved that they (the accused) were members of the RSS...

—Kapur Commission Report, [47]
RSS Leaders were acquitted of the conspiracy charge by the Supreme Court of India and following an intervention by the Court, the Indian Government agreed to lift the ban with condition that the RSS adopt a formal constitution. The second Sarsanghachalak, Golwalkar drafted the constitution for the RSS which he sent to the government in March 1949. In July of the same year, after many negotiations over the constitution and its acceptance, the ban on RSS was lifted.[20]




The RSS was instrumental in relief efforts after the 1971 Orissa Cyclone and the 1977 Andhra Pradesh Cyclone.[91]

The RSS assisted in relief efforts during the 2001 Gujarat earthquake, and helped rebuild villages.[91][92] Approximately 35,000 RSS members in uniform were engaged in the relief efforts,[93] and many of their critics acknowledged their role.[94]

An RSS-affiliated NGO, Seva Bharati, conducted relief operations in the aftermath of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake. Activities included building shelters for the victims, providing food, clothes and medical necessities.[95] The RSS assisted relief efforts during the 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake and the subsequent tsunami.[96]

Seva Bharati also adopted 57 children (38 Muslims and 19 Hindus) from militancy affected areas of Jammu and Kashmir to provide them education at least up to Higher Secondary level.[97][98] They have also taken care of victims of the Kargil War of 1999.[99]

In 2006, RSS participated in relief efforts to provide basic necessities such as food, milk and potable water to the people of Surat, Gujarat who were affected by massive floods in the region.[100][non-primary source needed] The RSS volunteers carried out relief and rehabilitation work after the floods ravaged North Karnataka and some districts of the state ofAndhra Pradesh.[101]

In 2013, following the Uttarakhand floods, RSS volunteers were involved in flood-relief works through its offices set up at various affected areas.[102][10
