Quoting his son Karti, Home minister P Chidambaram said, "Neither I nor any member of my family holds any share in Aircel or Maxis. These are wild, reckless allegations and the forum of Parliament is being misused to level allegations against private citizens.  

 

Karti today dismissed allegations by BJP MP Yashwant Sinha that he owns five per cent stake in a telecom company which was benefited from the 2G spectrum allocation.  In a statement, Karti said it was "deeply regretted" thatthe privileged forum of Parliament is misused to make "wild and reckless" allegations against a private citizen. 

 

His remarks came as Sinha raised the issue of Aircel-Maxis deal in 2006 and alleged that Karti was benefited by the deal and Chidambaram was the Finance Minister then.
