New Delhi, 2 February, 2012-The CPI(ML) welcomes the Supreme Court verdict on the
2G scam, in which the Court has ordered cancellation of 122 licenses issued in
2008 and penalized corporations that benefited from corruption.
The verdict is also a decisive blow to the UPA Government
which had consistently been denying the 2G scam entirely. In particular, the
present Telecom Minister Kapil Sibal had, on record, repeatedly claimed ‘zero
loss’ in the 2G allocations, and had rubbished any demand for cancellation of licenses.
The SC verdict has exposed such propaganda by the UPA Government to be deliberately
misleading and false attempts to cover up the scam.
The entire UPA Government, including the Prime
Minister and former Finance Minister P Chidambaram and the present Telecom
Minister Kapil Sibal, are collectively responsible, not only for the massive
scam, but for covering up corruption and attempting to protect the corrupt. The
CPI(ML) demands that the UPA Government immediately resign.

For Central Committee, CPI(ML)
