A very serious pattern of spying various important Ministries at the Central Government has been unearthed on the eve of preparation of annual budget. The Intelligence authorities have been active in unearthing the activities of the spies who had tried to reach to collect secret information from Petroleum, Coal and some other ministries to make a quick buck by leaking vital information to 'interested elements'.
The Government of India should take a serious view of the matter against those persons too who had put these informants at vital places to collect unauthorized data so that not only the persons arrested but also those who engaged them may be brought to book.
The black sheep. if any, in the ministries must also be identified and made to face the consequences of their acts of omissions and commissions.
Also, the Government is expected to initiate fool-proof steps to stop recurrence of such incidents in future.
