Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar continued to attack the UPA government over the AgustaWestland scam in Parliament for a second consecutive day. Attacking the Congress party, he said that it's established that someone has taken money but who has taken it remains to be unearthed.
I hope the members are satisfied and will help the government find the truth. What we could not do in Bofors, we will be able to do in Agusta case: Manohar Parrikar
In 2010, who gave the order, the sum that he/she has got is what we have to find, says Defence Minister
- 250.32 million Euros were paid in advance. These people, were not trying to recover the money untill they would have got something out of it.
- AK Antony's hands must have been tied. When the scam came to light, then he must have panicked. CBI enquiry was then ordered.
- They should have taken consultancy for people like Christian Michel. They should know how to erase their footprints.
- They say that Christian Michel is a fugitive and he's not telling a gospel theory. But what they don't know is that any documents can be asked from Italy.
Christian Michel writes to the PM that Jyotiraditya Scindiya has all the information: Manohar Parrikar
Behti Ganga main haath dhone walon ke piche inquiry chal rahi hai (Investigations are on for the people who take advantage of an opportunity): Manohar Parrikar
- I can't reveal everything CBI has found, it will impede investigation. But they are very serious.
- Though ED and CBI doesn't come under me, I am monitoring the progressof the investigation personally.
Jyotiraditya Scindia took total liberties with the truth by saying that the Rafael deal that they were doing costed 10 billion dollars. No deal had taken place: Defence Minister
- I don't know where they get the money from?
AgustaWestland blacklisted in Defence deals, why should we care if they have civilian contracts: Manohar Parrikar
'President's security was jeopardised. I won't let nation's security come under jeopardy': Manohar Parrikar
- We have put all the contracts in the pipeline with Finmeccanica on hold. We are not buying anything from them.
- But the Armed Forces have raised questions about the equipment they have need parts produced by subsidaries of Finmeccanica.
- Should our ships be without weapons? Should our helicopters not fly because one or more parts are manufactured by the company?
Congress walkout in Parliament as Defence Minister continues with allegations on the UPA government in the AgustaWestland case

Rukus in Parliament as Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar continues speaking on the AgustaWestland scam
- The airport office, where all the files are kept. That place mysteriously caught fire. The reason what caused the fire will be known after an investigation.
- But the people who had kept the files under a lock and key, three files were saved. And all the three files are related to AW101.
