A total of 13 Indians started out in the 234-players field and nine made the first cut applied after 36 holes and then just two Joshi and Sharma were left among the top 70 and ties. It was absolutely top-class to see how Se-young turned the match around from 12 in the second game for an unforgettable defeat of the World No1. I am very happy because the banks will be flush with funds. The hon. Finance Minister, in his Budget Speech, said that he was going to recapitalise banks, give banks more capitals and like President Obama he should lay down some rules and conditionalites for people who are taking packages from the Government. I would request the hon. Finance Minister also to make it clear to the banks that they are getting stimulus packages from the Government, they are getting capital from the Government and so they should help the industries which are suffering, especially the job-oriented industries and also in bringing down NPAs, no mala fide action should be taken. Sir, there are baks which do all sorts of funny things when they reduce the NPAs. They just sell off assets and NPAs to asset restructuring companies which have started to come up in the last two years. I know a particular case which I have brought to the attention of the hon. Finance Minister. This was a case where the NPA was Rs. 1,500 and the company be negotiation sold the NPA at Rs. 180 crore to an asset restructuring company. Sir, it is my duty because it is for the last time I have stood from my present constituency as it has become reserved in the delimitation exercise. There is a public sector company called Hindustan Photo Films at Ooty. This is a pride of Asia. This is only one kind of company in the public sector in the whole of South-East Asia. It produces x-ray films, it produces films for CAT scan, it produces films for MRIs and also black and white photographic films. Unfortunately, it has become sick because of reasons its control. Now, the Government has formulated a revival plan for it ans also it is coming before the Board for revival next week. The total cost of revival is Rs. 300 crore.
