Money from defence suppliers should be used for party funds said Rajiv Gandhi: Ex-CBI chief

Rajiv's some of the most trusted colleagues suggested to him to ban commissions but the commission received during major arms deal by the suppliers to be pooled in and used for party funds. Rajiv endorsed the same idea.
 
While Mukherjee served as the additional director to CBI, he maintained a diary of these conversations but making them public would have meant breaching the trust of Rajiv Gandhi which he never wished for.
 
"However, at this distant time and that too long after his tragic death, I owe it to posterity to narrate the full and complete disclosure of all that transpired between the two of us during this memorable coffee meeting with this remarkable human being whose trust I was privileged to receive in ample measure."
