Is Sai Baba’s Governmental Influence ‘Miraculous’?

Quotes
"It was revealing to find an old 1998 Indian Express report that saw
corrupt links between Sai Baba’s chief representatives and a then
Civil Aviation boss. Most Indian publications have long suffered
their publisher’s censorship against reports adverse to Sathya Sai
Baba".
"Likely to have been all too little noticed, then, was a report
filed in the Indian Express in February 1998 by reporter Swati
Chaturvedi. It points to corrupt origins in the sanctioning of the
Sathya Sai airport. What the Swati Chaturvedi article does not
mention is that the then Civil Aviation Secretary, M.K. Kaw, is a
Sai Baba devotee".

Quotes
"Stop Press.
It is reported that Sai Baba’s airport, which
has long had capacity for international flights, is up for sale"
Here is the latest news on this item:
It has just
been announced that the Sathya Sai Central Trust is trying to find a
buyer for the Sathya Sai airport.
"Is Sai Baba flying or well
grounded?
"Our reports are of greatly declining numbers visiting Sai Baba
from abroad. In the face of 7 years of the most intense exposure for
former devotee forces both on and off the Internet, is the Sathya
Sai Organization having a grave liquidity problem?
"Perhaps, big donors like minerals magnate James Sinclair,
Isaac Tigrett, former creator-owner of the Hard
Rock Cafe and the House of Blues, the Rai family in
India, etc., who may have to come extra good for the sheer capital
just to keep hugely costly Sathya Sai programs, building and plant
going. But then, are these individuals free of their own liquidity
problems?"
