Mocking democracy : Kapil Sibal

See the following interview from Kapil Sibal.

Q: Why was the 2G scam allowed to happen when the Prime Minister, the Law Minister and the finance ministry had expressed their reservations as early as November 2, 2007?
A: What is the 2G scam according to you? Please tell me, I want to listen to you.
Q: Wrongful allocation of resources that were anyways scarce done on the basis of bad pricing and done on the basis of a wrong system of allocation so that it went not by auction but by a first come first serve basis, which seems to have been rigged to help specific companies who turn out perhaps to be friends of the minister?
A: I am glad you set it out. Now before the UPA came to power in 2004, 52 licences were granted, on what basis?
Q: On the same basis but that was stretching back to 2001. But are you defending what Mr Raja did?
A: No I am not defending. Please I want to understand from you because nowadays we understand everything from the media. So I want to understand from you.

What do you read from it? Kapil Sibal is trying to share some of the guilt to opposition and is equipped with talking to media. It does not hide the fact that nation lost money and corrupts need to be punished.
