Who is Mr. Naik?
I see HT going all out, almost like the Indian Express of Old, against Minister Naik.
He has been convicted and the court has ordered one month prison term
here is an article from HT narrating how painful it is for Mr. Naik

Here’s how ex-minister dodges jail: Doctors say he doesn’t need to be in hospital. He insists: My chest hurts … SO WHY DOES EX-MINISTER WANT TO GO TO SUPER-LUXURY ‘JAIL’?

Solution would be to probably discount days spend in hospital from the whole prison term.
tragedy is, he will move to a 5 star jail then....
His accomplice, who was a government servant, is in the thane jail. well who said there is equality anyways
I have not seen any other paper even mentioning this scam.
Is there something wrong with our system or is it just us..

There is an old Kishore Kumar Song from AMar Prem, which goes:

Chingari Koi Bhadke etc.
a stanza goes like this.

mazadhaar mein naiyyaa dole, to maanzee paar lagaaye
maanzee jo naaw dooboye use kaun bachaaye?

(the boatman will save you if the boat is not balanced mid-river,
who will save the passenger whose boatman topples the boat)

Probe falters, cheats still officers
POLICE OFFICER Sudhakar Pujari was idly glancing through the personal files of computer operator Faroque Kadge, arrested for fiddling with public service records, when he sat bolt upright.

On the screen, Pujari found page after page of meticulously detailed records that showed how answer sheets of public service exams had been replaced on behalf of hundreds of candidates in 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2000.

That meant, hundreds of bureaucrats had got their jobs — most are still in service — through fraud.

And so began a case that now threatens to dwarf cover-ups that have jolted the national consciousness.

Away from the public glare, the Hindustan Times has uncovered the backroom fiddles that now threaten to derail the probe into the Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) exam scandal.

Who will save us Indeed.
