From Hungry “Thieves” (?) to Quora’s Ban: Victims Fight Crony Capitalism by DebaprasadBandyopadhyay Via Flickr: onceinabluemoon2021.in/2025/05/22/from-hungry-thieves-to-... The article critiques the systemic exploitation of small investors in India through the DHFL scam, alleging that Ajay Piramal acquired DHFL at a major undervaluation via a flawed IBC process that favoured corporate interests over the rights of vulnerable small investors. It accuses political and financial elites, including the BJP and RBI, of enabling this injustice. The piece especially brings to light the recent event of censorship of certain DHFL victims’ voices on Quora, where certain OBMA members were suspended for criticizing the RBI-appointed CoC-led resolution process. Framing the issue as a case of crony capitalism and “financial genocide” (finacide), it calls for justice and accountability.
