Amar Singh tapes suggest deals were fixed to help firms

Taped conversations of politician Amar Singh suggest a persistent and incestuous relationship between politicians and corporates. NDTV cannot verify the authenticity of the tapes that are now in the public domain. Amar Singh has told NDTV that he doubles up as an industrialist and a politician, and that the conversations that may seem inappropriate are in fact informal chats between parties that did business together. He stressed that as an industrialist, he was entitled to pursue business interests, and that he did not influence government decisions despite his considerable political stature in the Samajwadi Party.
