PM knows he can’t give up Ministers that easily



The CBI has found that the corruption money received by the nephew of Railway Minister P.k.Bansal was on behalf of the Minister himself. It may be soon when the CBI may interrogate the Minister himself.

But P.K.Bansal remains in the post because he is the protégé of Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh himself.
Law Minister Ashwini Kumar is also dear to the heart of the Prime Minister. The Supreme Court has been berating the CBI, the Law Minister and joint secretaries of the Prime Minister’s Office and the Coal Ministry for interfering with the report of the CBI on coalgate scam investigation.

The Supreme Court has said the heart of the inquiry report was changed.

All the same the two Ministers are guarding their posts, maybe on the plea that the apex court is yet to name them.

Indirectly, the blame should be shared by the Prime Minister too. So what is the point in pinpointing the blame to the Law Minister only?
