Finance Minister P. Chidambaram on Saturday refused to
comment on the JPC draft report which gives him a clean chit in the 2G
scam, saying that he has “never been concerned” about the allegations.
“I
have never been concerned about these allegations. In fact my concern
has been a fraction of the media’s concern,” he told a select group of
journalists here.
The Joint Parliamentary Committee
has given a clean chit to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Mr.
Chidambaram on 2G spectrum allocation.
The draft
report of the JPC also rubbishes the loss figure of Rs 1.76 lakh crore
estimated by CAG, saying it was “ill-conceived”.
The
report, which was circulated among members on April 18, before its
adoption on April 25, has caused a political storm with former Telecom
Minister A. Raja claiming that all decisions were taken in consultation
with Prime Minister Singh.
Mr. Chidambaram is
currently in Washington to attend the annual spring meeting of the
International Monetary Fund and the World Bank.
