>Moderator's Note:
>Mukesh Ambani on 22 August was reported as 
>seeking convergence of civil engineering and 
>agriculture can build a trans-India water 
>resources system by linking rivers. In 1980 
>Congress Party won the elections and the most 
>noteworthy person at the victory rally was 
>Dhirubhai Ambani. Since then several years have 
>passed and now the proximity of Mukesh Ambani 
>with Sonia Gandhi is a public knowledge.
>
>Saifuddin Soz in an interview on Lok Sabha TV on 29 August reiterated
>that the annual monsoon flows in the rivers in the northern, eastern
>and northeastern parts is reaching the sea is waste and therefore,
>the linking of rivers is still going on.
>
>After parting ways with the National Conference Soz joined the
>Congress on August 8, 2002 ,saying that it was the only party with the
>wherewithal to confront "parochial and communal 
>forces'' in the country. According to Dr. Soz, 
>he had decided to accept Ms. Sonia Gandhi's 
>invitation to join the Congress as it is "not 
>just a party, but a movement''. Its movement to 
>promote the ideals of likes of Ambani. In 
>January 2006, Soz was nominated to the Congress 
>Working Committee. He was also Minister of 
>Environment and Forests in the nineties.

>Do we still need to know that who all the people who are pushing for
>the mega project along with Dr Kalam?
>
>These are the people who will have us believe that the water flowing
>down to sea during monsoon is a wasted precious resource.
>
>Do we need to underline the Obscenity of farmers' suicide and the
>building of a new home in the financial hub of Mumbai: a 60-storey
>palace with helipad, health club and six floors of car parking.??
>
>Special Economic Zones and the proposal of linking of the rivers are
>quite linked.

>Microsoft CEO Ballmer drops a bombshell, says he and Mukesh D. Ambani
>dropped out of Stanford MBA class but after Ambani returned to India
>from the US in 1981, he "always been claiming he holds a MBA degree
>from Stanford University instead of stating that he merely studied
>there. The ˜fact" of his holding an MBA has been explicitly stated
>time and again in various official documents such as annual reports of
>companies in the Reliance group, including the group's flagship
>Reliance Industries Limited.."
>
>Such are the credentials of the supporters of interlinking of rivers.....
>
>As long as political parties get corporate funding SEZs and mega
>projects like linking of rivers will always find favours with politicians.

>"A convergence between energy and agriculture can address energy

>crops, Ambani, whose group has interests in both 
>biotechnology and fuels, said in a memorial 
>lecture for late industrialist Darbari Seth in 
>New Delhi.

>"It is possible to have a development model which improves the quality

>RIL chairman said a convergence of civil engineering and agriculture
