New Delhi:
After the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) told the Supreme Court today that a senior bureaucrat in the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) had seen its confidential report on the coal scam investigation, Mr Jaitley said that it is imperative to know whether government officials asked the CBI to change its report and whether the agency complied.
Mr Jaitley speaks to NDTV and here are the highlights:
- Affidavit shows that the CBI has become wise after the event
- Issue gone well beyond Law Minister now; PMO must explain
- In what context was PMO official shown draft of Coal report?
- In what context was PMO official shown draft of Coal report?
- Affidavit smashes claims of no interference by government
- The buck stops with the Prime Minister's Office
- Make coal draft public so it can be compared to final report
