Minister of State for Petroleum and Natural Gas Dharmendra Pradhan on Sunday said the corporate espionage case is being thoroughly investigated and added that things would become clear after the probe is over.
"The investigation is on and a clearer picture shall come up only after that. I had said earlier as well that we won't just talk about corruption, but will do something concrete. A proper investigation is taking place and things will be clear after it is over," said Pradhan.
