Crony capitalism, defying nature, is in full bloom, as winter sets in, baring all its multiple fangs. The Congress and the BJP are busy trading charges against each other’s leaders. It is these two parties that are principally responsible for putting in place the current structure of the neo-liberal economy and reforms that have opened up hitherto unknown and inconceivable avenues for mega corruption. This neo-liberal trajectory led to the mushrooming of crony capitalism of the worst order. As a result, lakhs of crores or trillions of rupees have already been looted and continue to be looted further. During the past three years, various mega scams have come to light like the 2G spectrum, coal block allocations, Commonwealth Games scam, Adarsh Housing Society scam etc etc etc.
