Amid corporate espionage scandal getting thicker, Road Transport, Highways and Shipping Minister Nitin Gadkari today said his ministries are "zero corruption" zones and there is nothing to hide.
The functioning of both the ministries is "transparent" and aimed at disseminating more information to people, Gadkari told PTI.
"Our Ministry is fully transparent. Any one can see it. We don't indulge in wrong practices. There is zero corruption in our Ministries. We have nothing to hide, rather we want to provide information," he said, adding that no work contract was awarded by the concerned ministries without any tender or e-tender.
He, however, said that let the enquiry into leakage of Petroleum Ministry's confidential documents be complete, adding that some people indulge in such kind of activities.
Five senior executives from top energy firms and two consultants were among those arrested yesterday in corporate espionage scandal in which classified documents, including an input from Finance Minister's budget speech, were allegedly leaked.
A total of 12 people have been arrested in the case so far.
