The Union Minister for Finance, Corporate Affairs and Information & Broadcasting, Shri Arun Jaitley delivered the 28th I.B. Centenary Endowment Lecture here today. Dwelling upon Economic Offences and National Security, Shri Jaitley said that the growth of white collar crimes is a relatively recent phenomenon in India. As a result both methods of investigation, prevention and adjudication of such offences need to keep pace, he added.
Shri Jaitley said the period 1947-1991 in Indian history can be termed as the era of the Licence Raj. Post-1991, during the Prime Ministership of PV Narasimha Rao, the industrial licensing was abolished in almost all industries and a policy of liberalization adopted, he added.
