I totally disagree with this. How can any company allow any other external body to infere in its internal matters. and for how how many companies is this possible.
The satyam people had shown themselves as follower of the highest standards of the IT industry. in such conditions it is not possible for SEBI or any other authority to directly interfere. also the role of independent directors is limited to a large extent. they believed the books created by Raju and hence indirectly helped him to create such a scene.

I think you got some points correct from the editorial. I feel what you said about SEBI needs correction. Let me share my understanding about that part about SEBI. SEBI is a regulatory authority setup by Indian Government to oversee and devise regulations at various stages so that things like Frauds and scams are avoided.
So when the author mentions SEBI he is referring to it in this light. Of course it's not possible for a single organisation to peek into every company. The point of the matter is either everyone believed Satyam (and its books) at face value
or some people at some levels were bribed to keep quite
or all of them are in this scandal. The truth will eventually bubble up...
