By Harish Gupta (National Editor-Lokmat) Excerpts:
Q: You said the Defence was worst performing sector under UPA, from negative growth you brought it up to zero and now moving up?
A: What I said was that decisions were not being taken in time. I don't want to discuss the past. You only have to look into the reports what CAG has said. You will know everything. Country knows it.
Q: How many projects got delayed like the Nalanda Ordinance Factory?
A:
You see when decisions are not taken, projects will be delayed. The CAG
said how critically required arms and ammunitions were not made
available.
