Exclusive: Read full interview of A Raja to Rajat Sharma in Aap Ki Adalat (Part II)

RS: Is it true that PM was not aware of anything that you were doing.A Raja: What decision I took. I told him unless the existing law (NTP) is changed, spectrum can't be auctioned .




RS:
If there was no scam, why did Manmoahn Singh drop you from the cabinet?

A Raja: He did not remove me. I offered my resignation on the advise of my leader. The real biggest scam in the country is that the real spectrum was not disclosed to the public. I boosted rural teledensity from 8 % to 40 %. I made 50 paise per call. I gave India cheapest tariff in world . You can call me spectrum Raja.

RS: If I'm to assume that you committed no wrong and PM did not ask you to resign then why did you resign?

A Raja: Because you media people kept talking about Rs 1,76000 crores. In order to remove the cloud, I though till the case is over, my continuance in cabinet won't be fair. That's why I resigned.

RS: Your own govt files a case against you. CBI is investigating and CBI comes directly under PM.

A Raja: Because they say CBI is independent.
