It is not the first time that the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) of India has disclosed the government’s involvement in a scam. What is disconcerting this time is that Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh has been accused of keeping the CAG report on coal bungling — running into Rs1.45 trillion (Dh96.63 billion) — from parliament.Dr Singh told parliament on May 23 this year that the CAG report was only a draft. It has, however, come to light that the final report was received on May 11, both by the government and the president’s office. It means that there is nothing, even parliamentary privileges, that is sacrosanct to the Congress-led coalition, much less transparency in governance that one expected from a government headed by Dr Singh.
