The Group Mediclaim Insurance contract to cover around 400,000 government employees and pensioners was allotted by Governor Satya Pal Malik’s administration to Reliance General Insurance Company (RGIC) at a time when its promoter Anil Ambani was embroiled in the Rs 59,000-crore Rafale deal controversy.

Until September 2018, people in Jammu and Kashmir had their curiosity confined to the purported funding of a French film by one of Ambani’s companies for which the shooting was to be facilitated at the exquisite locales of Ladakh.
