I have just returned from the electric crematorium. There were people, and then there were more. No formal invitation had been sent, the news travelled from heart to heart.
The CBI filed its charge sheet earlier last week in a Special CBI court in Jammu. Satyapal Malik is currently under treatment in Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital, Delhi.
CBI suspects Malik benefited from kickbacks for Rs 2,200 crore contract award in Jammu, it is learnt. In 2021, he said he had refused a Rs 300 crore bribe, prompting probe.
The two spoke on a range of issues, including J&K, the 2019 Pulwama attack, caste census, Adani, and state of farmers in India. Video of conversation released by Congress on social media.
Ex-J&K governor and former BJP national V-P Malik said one cannot rule out 'attack on Ram Mandir' or 'orchestrated conflict with Pakistan' ahead of 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Police say Malik had decided to host lunch at local park for his supporters but didn't have required permissions. This comes after he was summoned by CBI in ongoing corruption probe.
In October 2021, Malik had claimed that he was offered a Rs 300 crore bribe for clearing two files during his tenure as governor of Jammu and Kashmir between 23 August 2018 and 30 October 2019.

They say when someone passes away you should not talk ill of them, but being quiet about their chicanery, their opportunism, their unbounded ambition that made them tread one ill-advised path after the other, only because they felt they were too important in the scheme of things, is also allowing false persona to be created around people undeserving of the accolades being showered on them. We have ample examples from the time of Independence, when men of clay were cast into metal as Gods by sycophants. Let’s not kerp repeating that.
