High-profile inauguration
Possibly because it is too close to the
Budget, the annual general meeting
of FICCI will not see the participation of
Finance Minister, P. Chidambaram, this
year. But that is not causing any anguish
in the Federation, since the Prime
Minister is scheduled to open the twoday
event on Friday. Other high-profile
guests are Montek Singh Ahluwalia,
Kamal Nath, Murli Deora and a host of
senior officials. Though it is not the first
time that a Prime Minister has
inaugurated a trade body's AGM, FICCI
this time has literally gone to town about
the fact that Dr Manmohan Singh will be
doing the honours. On the streets of the
capital, hoardings, with the PM's
picture, have been put up announcing
the event, and not many scribes can
recall whether such an exercise was
undertaken earlier.
