Explanation:

In 2005, when Niira Radia was trying to start an airline in India, she asked a senior aviation ministry official why a Person of Indian Origin was not allowed to do so when an NRI could. The rules, she was told. Her reply, neatly interspersed with names of ministers and tycoons, was sharp: "Don't worry, we will have the rules changed." Within five years, she changed more than one rule. Her advocacy skills matched with an acute realism altered whatever came in the way of her client, most often her friend and mentor Ratan Tata. By 2009, Radia, expertly exploiting a corrupt system and compliant minister, was manipulating Cabinet portfolios in the UPA Government. The expose of her multi-dextrous interventions has smashed a cosy establishment, weakened a seemingly impregnable Government and cast a long shadow on the turbulent politics of 2011.
