Law Minister Salman Khurshid, who has courted controversy by his statement on granting 9 per cent quota for minorities, today said he had no regrets as he
had not done anything unlawful.

"No. Why should I regret? You regret when you do something unlawful," he told reporters while emerging from a meeting of the Group of Ministers on Bhopal gas tragedy. 

Khurshid made the promise of nine per cent sub-quota for muslims within the existing 27 per cent OBC quota in Farrukhabad Assembly Constituency in Uttar Pradesh where his wife Louise is in the fray. 

He was slapped with a notice on Tuesday by the Election Commission which held that prima facie his promise on sub-quota for backward muslims within existing 27 per cent OBC quota was "serious violation" of the model code of conduct.
