he wanted to charge them criminally and tried to, but because of the "engineers" position and connections, the indian government declined. some of them did get fired which caused the usual hollow indian tier dramatics. the company he worked for just billed the indian government for the shrinkage, and he went on to other projects.  iirc he was involved in 5 or 6 projects in india, and all of them were basically a shitshow of theft, graft, corruption and rampant incompetence on the part of the indians involved, that the indian government was paying for.
