Highlights of India Today Hindi issue dated March 6th, 2013. Cover Story: India Today Hindi’s cover story Hathiyaron Ka Roman Samrajya. Our hands are clean,” Defence Minister A.K. Antony told the media at a press conference in Delhi on February 19, holding his right hand up in his characteristic half wave. “We have nothing to hide.” It was Antony’s Manmohan Singh moment: A man of impeccable personal integrity accused of looking the other way when corruption took place on his watch. Antony defended his ministry’s inaction over the chopper scam where Italian arms firm Finmeccanica allegedly first inflated the price of the Rs 3,546 crore deal to buy 12 AW-101 choppers and used middlemen to skim and split an estimated Rs 350 crore in kickbacks. Although Finmeccanica ceo Guiseppe Orsi was arrested on bribery charges in Italy on February 12, it took Antony two days to order a cbi probe and three days to suspend payments for the deal. The deal was key to Italy becoming a powerhouse of arms exports to India, rising from No. 12 in 2007 to No. 5 by 2011, according to the Stockholm Institute of Peace Research Institute. Much of that rise had to do with Finmeccanica, the world’s eighth largest defence firm, and its ceo Orsi who presided over an intricate network of middlemen based in Milan, London, Lugano and Delhi.
