What a damning indictment of the prosecution in the 2G spectrum case! I still distinctly remember how night after night, the news media would keep excoriating the then UPA government and calling the then Prime Minister names. As it turns out, there was no criminality involved, and the trial judge literally threw the case into a virtual garbage bin after six years. But what about the lives destroyed? The reputations ruined? Anyways, I am happy for the former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh. A few years ago, he said that history will judge him kindly, and he stands vindicated.
