The Fairfax Network!!! Fairfax Group Board Looked Like Govt Re-union!!! Some joined Fairfax linked companies years before the IDBI sale. Others joined during it. Their appointments and tenures need to be read against the chronology, rather than treated as a single wave of recruitment. #IDBISaleScam #IDBI @BWBusinessworld

High Level Committee on Banking reforms without a single member from any commercial bank. 🤡 Won't be surprised if it recommends to merge State bank of India with Jio Payment Bank and make it Jio Bank of India.
The merger committee is formed after the decision has already been made? 🤔🤔 Will it simply recommend the same decision after six months? 🤔

The IDBI sell off is an outright scam. Not even the government’s 2 rupee troll army can spin this level of damage control. Privatizing public profit after taxpayers absorbed the bad loans is unacceptable. #StopPrivatisation #IDBIBank #IDBINotForSale #IDBISaleScam

Madam @nsitharaman 🙏 You are right that IDBI was pulled out of it's bad loans and put back on its feet. Appreciate U for this.👏 But that money came from taxpayers and LIC policyholders, so it was the public that carried the risk. Now that the bank has earned ₹30,105 crore in six years and is ready for "the next phase of growth", why should the public lose the benefit? You say all due process was followed. Then make both valuation reports public and explain why the deal was struck at ₹81 against a reported reserve price of ₹94.42. A sound decision has nothing to fear from transparency. You spoke of a rulebook, not a phonebook. That same rulebook holds the 2003 assurance to Parliament that the government's stake would not fall below 51%. Keep that promise, keep 51%, and protect the service conditions of employees in writing. #StandWithIDBI

Sensational Details of @IDBI_Bank -Fairfax Deal: First They Saw the Bid. Then They Set the Price. Internal Finance Ministry note shows officials opened Fairfax's offer for IDBI Bank, then ordered new valuations under new rules. The price the bank was "worth" came in below the bid. businessworld.in/article/sen…

A BusinessWorld investigation based on internal government minutes raises disturbing questions about the IDBI Bank sale to Fairfax for ₹52,878 crore. Fairfax’s initial bid of ₹75 per share was below the confidential reserve price of ₹94.42. So what did the government do? Changed the valuation methodology, invited revised bids from only two shortlisted entities and accepted Fairfax’s revised offer of ₹81 — still well below the original reserve price. Crucial questions emerge: ❓Why weren't fresh bidders invited after the rules changed? ❓On what legal basis was the bidding process altered? ❓Why is the identity of the other bidder, rejected by the Home Ministry on national security grounds, being withheld? ❓And above all, why was the government in such a hurry to sell? 🔔Remember, LIC had pumped ₹21,624 crore of public money into rescuing IDBI Bank in 2019🔔 When public money rescues a bank, who gets to decide how it is sold, on what terms, and at whose cost?

Absolutely true. In whatever portfolio one is having roleplay, one should be thorough with extant circular instructions. Never ever do any work based on oral instruction. Refused to follow oral orders. Faced humiliation in front of peers & lost promotion. But retired unscathed.
