Marut Sikka, food impresario, for all his politically-correct soundbytes, is not given to flaunting much (putting aside his weight, of course), yet he doesn’t shy away from the admission that he’s the best in the business.
He’d certainly not approve of the lackadaisical way Sikka is putting together his ingredients with not a care for the minutest quantities Kalra would have calibrated for the perfect meal.
Sikka’s restaurant would not have over 25 items on its menu, and that includes the starters and the main course.

Sikka cited examples such as Enron, BCCI, Robert Maxwell and PricewaterhouseCoopers' independence violations to back his case that external audit ultimately harms people by taking away their homes, savings and jobs.
Sikka has already voiced his worries over audit in The Times, The Guardian, and on AccountingWEB, as the Enron affair breathes oxygen into the lungs of professional evaluation.

 Sikka asks: is there institutionalised racism in accountancy? - 06 Jun 2000
Prem Sikka is expected to renew his controversial campaign for ethnic monitoring in accountancy at next week's 'Accountancy for the New Millennium' conference.

What is tiring is that in the case of Sikka, all his causes have nothing to do with enhancing Accountancy education and updates, enhancing the level of debates on the practice of Accountancy and contributing towards such discussion.
