King who chooses to be misled doesn't deserve to be ruler: Arun Jaitley on 2G scam report

• I have not seen the JPC report yet as officially most members have not received it till today afternoon.
• Fact that it was leaked to media means it is a propaganda document.
• This draft if it ever takes the shape of a report makes it clear that present govt is not interested in bringing out who is responsible.
• The king who choses to be misled doesn't deserve to be the ruler.
• The first-come-first-serve criteria was not followed; it was first pay first serve.
• The BJP has members in JPC and when they are part of such committees, BJP members act as normal people and not as party members.
  
• Consensus which is arrived at by sacrificing truth is not worth it.

ON COAL REPORT

• CBI has ceased to be a reliable agency - both fear and favour are used to control what the CBI does.
• The present government owes its existence to the CBI.
• Law Minister can only advise on aspects of law.
  
• I am keenly waiting the CBI affidavit.
  
• If the affidavit has truth then it will hold together, if the affidavit resorts to falsehood it will fall apart.
  

On NARENDRA MODI

• At least a public debate has started in India on who should be the candidate for one party - this is the Indian version of the US primaries.
  
• Parties take their own time; there is a dynamics of a decision -making process.
  
• The NDA meeting scheduled is for the Parliament's functioning agenda.
