The directives come after the previous Manmohan Singh government was rocked by a series of corruption scandals.All the PM's men, and women
In the 2G scam, A. Raja, former telecom minister, and Kanimozhi, a former DMK MP, have been accused of corruption. In the coal scam too, questions have been raised over the role of the previous government.
