2G spectrum scam: Nira Radia Summoned By CBI, Open Magazine Revels NDTV Barkha Dutt Relation

Nira Radia has been accused of fixing mobile bandwidth licences on behalf of some corporate houses.

Her role first emerged when the income tax department recorded her conversations with Raja and corporate biggies, over 10 months in 2008 and 2009. It appeared that several key people who could make a difference in fixing licences had been compromised.

Also, that Radia was privy to several confidential government documents.

The CBI had filed an FIR in the matter on October 21, 2009, after the case was sent to it by the Central Vigilance Commission.

Meanwhile, In response to the Open Magazine cover story dated 20th November, 2010 NDTV would like to object in the strongest terms to the clear misrepresentation of conversations between Barkha Dutt and Ms. Nira Radia, that took place in May 2009.
