PC on Aircel: Stab me, don't question my integrity

May 14, 2012 13:26

The normally unruffled home minister gets emotional in Parliament over the Aircel-Maxis deal as Arun Jaitley reads out the balance sheet that shows loans and advances given to Aircel.

Jaitley says the party does not accept the theory of consultancy. Chidambaram maintains that the family has no connection with any telecom company nor does the family hold any shares. In the empassioned debate, Chidambaram says, "It would be simpler to put a dagger into my heart than question my integrity."

The Rajya Sabha has now been adjourned for a one-hour lunch break.
