<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--> Here are some bare facts on how Rahul Gandhi continues to amass wealth. His
affidavit at the Amethi elections declare that he owns 83% of the stake in a
company called Back-ops Engineering (his capital investment in this, as per his
affidavit, is Rs2.5 lakhs and the bank balance of the company is Rs 3 lakhs).

This company has landed prestigeous projects:

Which is the company that is behind the construction of International Airport
Terminal Building at Mumbai, container freight station for Maersk Sealand,
Training Centres for RBI, headquarters of Wochhardt Ltd and Wockhardt Hospital
in Mumbai, IPCL township at Nagothane, meditation hall at Osho Commune of Pune
and other high value projects?

These projects include, besides airport terminal and container freight station,
Belapur railway station/commercial complex at Navi Mumbai, Logistics facility
for United Liner Agencies at Nhava Sheva, commercial complex at Phoenix Mills,
Mumbai, Taj Flight Kitchen, Mumbai and New Delhi, Coromandel Fertilizers at
Cuddapah (AP), The Oberoi Amar Vilas at Agra, Hyatt Regency at Kathmandu and so
on.

Mid-Day carried two scathing articles and after that "mysteriously" dropped the
issue:
