I would like to congratulate Shekhar Gupta and his team for the wonderful exposure of heinous act of corruption at the top. I think these tapes are evidence enough and no further clarifications are required. Judeo should resign and be prosecuted.

Saw the photographs of the minister, Dilip Singh Judeo, accepting a bribe. I once admired your newspaper, but a falling circulation may have tempted you to publish such a report. We hear so many stories about the Congress president. Do you have the courage to print them? No. God save the country and the Indian
Express which has become a mouth piece of Congress.

It is unfortunate that we have men at the helm of affairs who would sell a country, that won its freedom through many sacrifices, for a few crore rupees. We now need to liberate our nation from the Telgis and Judeos.

It has become a habit for the BJP – the party with a difference – to show that the difference is that they are better crooks than the Congress.

All politicians take and make money. But it is these NDA guys who get caught because of their amateurism. Look at the Congress. It has swindled this country in thousands of crores but ensured that nothing can be proved!

The whole nation wishes to know whether it can rely on your stories. These days even gods have to prove that they are gods.

The Indian Express never takes sides. The paper always presents an unbiased picture of anything that affects the quality of our lives, whether it was the time of emergency, politics, corruption, environment or sports and games. It’s the country’s good fortune that this newspaper is around to expose the dirt of our so-called clean parties.

Apropos of your edit, ‘Frames of shame’ (November 17), it is quite true that you have not been wanting in applauding the achievements of the NDA government and BJP. In his Raipur press conference the involved minister was most unconvincing. BJP’s allegation of a conspiracy may also not have many takers after viewing the video on TV channels. Your sane advice that the stain should be cleared needs to be taken seriously by the prime minister.

This topic will remain hot for a few days and then disappear like Tehelka.

Dilip Singh Judeo’s defence of himself clearly shows that our political leaders have become habitual liars.
— Subir Bhattacharya, On e-mail
BJP leaders know only how to cash in on religion and earn lot of money.
— Manish, On e-mail
We, as Indians, have to be proud of your newspaper for its daredevil expose.
—Nagaraj On e-mail
Have you lost your sense of shame? These are nothing but fabricated stories. You may boost you circulation but you have lost the trust of your readers.
— Krishna, On e-mail
We like this kind of journalism and appreciate the efforts of all the great persons involved in unfolding this issue. Keep up the good work!
