ch (SJM), an arm of the RSS, has demanded a judicial 
probe into the Enron deal, while investigating the role of politicians and 
bureaucrats in the controversy-ridden power project. 
Ramesh Seth, convener of SJM, Mumbai and Anil Gachke, convener of SJM's 
national action group on power, have alleged that while examining the 
feasibility of the project, inflated and fabricated figures of demand for 
power were given by those in power.
When pointed out that this would mean an examination of leaders like Gopinath 
Munde, Sharad Pawar and Balasaheb Thackeray, Gachke said that a probe should 
be instituted irrespective of political affiliations. 
Gachke said the SJM would not budge from their stand of cancellation of the 
deal. Seth, a qualified engineer, had predicted on behalf of the Manch that 
Enron power would cost Rs seven per unit in 1996, which was way higher than 
the actual cost of power. 
To make people aware of the issue, they have organised a seminar 'Enron
-review and thereafter', which will be held today at Ghia Hall, Kala Ghoda at 
2 pm.
