Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said the outbursts by the former
environment minister against the Congress Vice President showed that the
UPA government was a practitioner of "sadistic" economy and "crony
capitalism".
"I hope the Environment ministry now will go into each of these permissions which were granted and not granted and make sure that these are expeditiously dealt with only as per law and no other consideration," Jaitley told reporters.
Natarajan's letter to Sonia Gandhi "conclusively establishes" that it was not the statutory or mandatory considerations which weighed with the Congress but only "whims" of the leaders, the Finance Minister charged.
The Finance Minister was reacting to Natarajan's letter to the Congress President alleging that she had received specific requests from Rahul Gandhi on environmental clearances and consequently had rejected big ticket projects.
