Acivil servant, generally, is a Master (pardon the gender bias) of
Manipulation. She (bias corrected) is, generally, adept at the art of using
arguments, sometimes bizarre and sometimes inept, to convince her critics. This
is beautifully done in Pradip Baijal’s book, Disinvestment in India: I Lose and
You Gain. He was associated with the disinvestment process for over a decade
(1993-2003), as the secretary in the disinvestment ministry, and was
well-known, along with his minister, Arun Shourie, during NDA-1’s regime for a
string of controversial “strategic sales”.
