  1. This is the Nexus of Local Politicians, Custom & Excise Officials, Police Officials, Monster Mafias etc... and the Loot of Govt Oil Depots and Storage is on going from last 30 years in many states. On every Tankers the Looter Share Holders price is fixed. Some time after Looting 70-75% of Stock they put Depots and Storage on fire to show the lost is due to fire. India cannot afford killings of the Honest Whistle Blowers and must stand up to bring this Monster Nexus down. Death penalty must be asked for all convicted, including their " RING LEADERS ". JAI HIND.
