Leak of JPC report on 2G gross breach: BJP

April 19, 2013 12:25

Slamming the leakage of the draft JPC report on 2G scam as a "gross breach of Parliamentary propriety", BJP today said its contents appeared like Congress documents where attempts have been made to save its leaders including the Prime Minister.

"The media showed the JPC draft report on 2G scam extensively. This is a gross breach of Parliamentary propriety where any report draft is debated, discussed, amendments are moved in the formal meeting and thereafter views are taken," BJP spokesperson Ravishankar Prasad said.

"The draft report looks like a Congress document and not a JPC report in which there is an overpowering desire to save its leaders including the Prime Minister and the Finance Minister in the 2G scam and yet to objectively consider the wider ramification of this massive scam which shamed the country," he said. Prasad said he was yet to go through the report as it was given to the members today only.
