“I am challenging through this forum. Let all these institutions  come together (and say) Raja did wrong, Prime Minister's Office, Union Cabinet, Parliament, Planning Commission, CAG, CBI, Supreme Court, in all factors that were indicated in the chargesheet.

When Rajat Sharma asked why he was the only one who was being targeted, Raja replied: “Definitely cartel forces must be behind it. Those who were losing the business, of course telecom is very big.

“You see the network. Rs 1 lakh crore, Rs 2 lakh crore per operator.

They may be afraid of, (and) injected through the media, that Raja is doing this, this wrong.”

A Raja in Rajat Sharma's Aap Ki Adalat show on India TV will be telecast tonight at 10 pm, and on Sunday (May 4) at 10 am and 10 pm.
