Dinesh Singh Rawat Says,
This contempt notice to Sahara Group CEO Subrata Roy has shown clear-cut motive behind corporate houses to launch their media houses to use it as their arms to defend them from all three pillars of Indian democracy , i.e. Judiciary , Executive and Legislative.

The Neera Radia Tapes has already proved this nation's integrity threaten nexus among all four pillars including the press, which is considered as the fourth pillar of Indian democratic system, but now Sahara Group CEO Subrata Roy's action to use his media to threat the investigating officer,Rajeshwar Singh of enforcement directorate has gone further depicting the misuse of Fourth pillar( The Press)to defend his role in 2G scam case where ED found money transfer from Subrata Roy's Sahara Group to S-tel, the proxy telecom company used to siphon money from 2G spectrum allocation corruption done by Indian Politicians and corporate houses.

So, I of Views all four pillars including Media of Indian democracy should be come the purview of under Jan Lokpal Bill.
