Dayanidhi Maran, whenever a question is asked about his involvement in 2G scam, has a habit of flourishing a sheaf of papers,declaring that the event has happened before his tenure, be it change in telecom Policy or Maxi Investment in SUN Network or arm twisting Aircel.
So the 2 G Scam was started by Adam.

Under attack for his alleged role in the 2G spectrum scam, union Textiles Minister Dayanidhi Maran Monday said he never forced Aircel founder C. Sivasankaran to sell stakes in his company.
“No one can force anyone to sell the business. Moreover, Aircel ventures have been there from time to time in the media, and I have paper cuttings which state the same,” he told reporters here.
“Although most of the channels are trying to make a story today, saying that I forced, arm-twisted and strangulated to sell a business to the other person… let me tell you that Mr. Sivasankaran is not a millionaire, but a multi-millionaire.
“The paper cutting clearly proves that this particular company was parading itself much before I became a telecom minister. I have never had to force anyone to sell the business,” he said.
But the market thinks otherwise.
The Marans of Tamil Nadu, brothers Dayanidhi and Kalanidhi, grand nephews of former DMK Chief Minister M Karunanidhi, have lost over Rs 3,000 crore in paper wealth in just a few hours today after a news story linked Dayanidhi to another dubious telecom deal.
