I have quoted what CAG has in its report to the parliament pointed out. I remember there were all 11 points and all of them concerning the money spent during the cargil war. The auditing watch dog of the government treasury mentioned that the shells as you may call were ready for use , and was informed by DRDL in writing that they were even tested by them for use. The howtizer gun( I do not know why it has not been called "cannon") is 155mm and about 1200 of them were purchased from Sweden by the then Rajiv Gandhi's government on the recommendations of a panel of army officers headed by Genral Sunderji. The CAG report was never fully answered by Vajpayee govt. either in public or in parliament. George Fernadez only said that he was totally unaware, totally ignorant of the fact that an order was kept to USA for coffins. About Bofors bullets(shells) BJP maintained a complete silence, never instituted any enquiery.
Remember the Kargil war, if not for Bofors gun which fires the bullet for 25 km and explodes a few inches before it hits the target, the casualties on Indian side could have been very heavy. Rajiv gandhi was hounded inside and out of parliament for this same Bofors deal.
