    What has happened to the money promised after Veerappan killing?

    After Veerappan was shot dead in an encounter last October, the governments of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu were effusive in their praise for the various teams and task forces who were part of the operation to capture/eliminate the brigand terrorist.

    Rewards were announced immediately, to the tune of over Rs. 100 crores from the two state governments. The problem though, as is usually the case with the Indian babu-dom, is in its implementation. Several members of the Special Task Force have borrowed or invested heavily in anticipation of a substantial reward.

    The dithering over who is eligible for what reward, how to equitably distribute the money, etc. means that there could be a long wait ahead.
