Jehangir Pocha: Niira
Niira Radia: You called
Niira Radia: hello
Jehangir Pocha: Yep
Niira Radia: you called [indiscernible], darling
Jehangir Pocha: Yep
Niira Radia: What?
Jehangir Pocha: Where are you
Niira Radia: At Home
Jehangir Pocha: Having fun?
Niira Radia: I have been on the phone since morning
Jehangir Pocha: Why…
Niira Radia: You Know, I tell you one thing. I went through the judgement. You know there are things in the judgement that has... even if you look at the scope of the judgement. It is only written by a lawyer.
Jehangir Pocha: HMMM
Niira Radia: It’s not written by a judge. You can tell that from way it has been written.
Secondly there are things that have been said in the judgement For example... In one of the points 308 which you would would not be privy to, it was never in arguments
Jehangir Pocha: Like what?
Niira Radia: Like, In The board meeting. The minutes of the board meeting it's said that the particular decision has been annulled.
Jehangir Pocha: hmmmm
Niira Radia: The minutes says that it has been annulled. Right.
Jehangir Pocha: hmmmm
Niira Radia: The minutes of the board say that but there was some errr..tacit understanding and wrongdoing to Anil Ambani.
Jehangir Pocha: hmmm
Niira Radia: It’s subjective. (PAUSE) The full minutes were never presented in the court. From either side how does he know? It’s not part of any submission. He’s subjective. (PAUSE) He…The board minutes were never presented in the court. By either side.
Jehangir Pocha: (Not clear) That’s pretty serious. So then?
Niira Radia: No. That is small. That is another thing. Now, the Other thing is that I have been
pushing in the media since morning with the editors has been – Coal. They did this diversion of coal. Right? Sasan. How did that happen? Third part. They did it post the event. Right?
Jehangir Pocha: Hmmm
Niira Radia: Then happened Spectrum. How did spectrum happen? Restrospect. (inaudible) to technology. Fixed went to TDSAT. TDSAT. Sunil Mittal and everybody went to supreme court. Coal-High Court. Tata Power went to Supreme Court
Jehangir Pocha: Hmmm
Niira Radia: Then came gas. How can a natural asset of the country be decided by a judge who is deciding on an MoU between two brothers. who ever the brothers are. It doesnt matter. Either of the brothers have no right. So Add: all three…
Jehangir Pocha: How are people reacting to that?
Niira Radia: All three natural resources.
Jehangir Pocha: Hmmm
Niira Radia: Fourth point. Iron ore mines in Jharkhand.
Jehangir Pocha: Hmmm
Niira Radia: He is asking for iron ore mine when he doesnt even have steel plant. He is asking for gas when he doesnt even have power plant.
Jehangir Pocha: Hmmm
Niira Radia: What is his attempt. His attempt is: I Anil Ambani. I am trying to take all natural resources of the country for personal profit. Therefore natural resources cannot be decided by a government.I mean Cannot be decided by a department like Shinde or Raja. Cannot be decided by a state government in the case of iron ore and coal.
Jehangir Pocha: Hmmm
Niira Radia: Spectrum cannot be decided by Mr Raja again. It cannot be decided by regional parties.
Jehangir Pocha: Hmmm
Niira Radia: It has to be decided through a one policy mechanism at the top which can happen only at the purview of the prime minister. It doesnt matter who it is. It doesnt matter if it’s
Mukesh Ambani. It doesnt matter if it is Tata.
Jehangir Pocha: New argument. Is it? But how are people responding to it?
Niira Radia: Very very positive. Everybody agrees because if you talk about Yeddiyurappa in Karnataka with Bellary. You talk about Madhu Koda asking 150 crores per mine. Who the… Everyone today knows the mining scam. Who doesnt know that, right? It is a natural resource of the country. Spectrum. They are in court. It has been a dispute for last six years.
Niira Radia: It’s a very valid fact.
Jehangir Pocha: Okay. Come. We will do a half an hour on this tomorrow.
Niira Radia: But it’s a very valid fact.
Jehangir Pocha: hAAN.
Niira Radia: It cannot be…
Jehangir Pocha: inaudible ( Accha, so what..)
