At the meeting, Gowda even threatened to blow the whistle on what he called
the attempts being made to bail out Ashok Jain, chairman of Bennett Coleman
& Co. Ltd (BCCL), publishers of the Times of India. Going after Jain, who
is being pursued by the Enforcement Directorate for alleged FERA violations

be close to the Jains. Gowda recalls how, soon after his government fell,
two senior BCCL officials call on him and promised to make him India's next
President. "I know who sent them here I am not a fool," he says. He has now
