Unsettling scam

The numerous rounds of allegations by the Bharatiya Janata Party and the counter-allegations by the Congress in the AgustaWestland helicopter scam that has rocked the country is leading us nowhere. Its pattern is cyclical. The BJP says the Congress is to be blamed since the deal was signed when the UPA was in power. The Congress says the deal was conceptualised during the Vajpayee government. Amidst all this confusion, the middlemen who benefited from the deal are having the last laugh.
