If you read the Outlook magazine dated Dec-21st, you will notice that despite objections raised by then Finance Minister Mr. P. Chidambaram and Agriculture, Food and Civil Supplies Minister – Mr. Sharad Pawar, empowered group of ministers headed by Mr. Pranab Mukherjee under the controversial leadership of then Commerce Minister Mr. Kamal Nath pushed for Rs 2,500 cr Rice Export Scam when India itself was facing food inflation and rice shortage.  So now you know why prices of food and essential commodities rise 🙂

Outlook Magazine and its Journalists led by Saikat Datta have done an excellent job in recovering documents from various ministries and exposing the scam but what will be the outcome, another chapter for the book – The Great Indian scams ?
