New Delhi: The Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) submitted its report on the 2G scam to Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar today.
The panel gave a clean chit to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in the 2G spectrum scam saying he was "misled" by the then Telecom Minister A Raja.
The report, on which six parties have submitted dissent notes, also rubbishes the loss figure of Rs 1.76 lakh crore estimated by Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG), saying it was "ill-conceived".
The report, which delved into the period between 1998 and 2009, will be tabled in Parliament in the Winter Session likely to commence in the first week of December.
The dissent notes are a way to record members' objections to the findings and are appended with the final report when it is tabled.
In its dissent note, BJP insisted that the Prime Minister and then Finance Minister P Chidambaram should have been asked to depose before the JPC.
The report, which was adopted by majority vote on September 27 in the absence of two JD(U) members, also accuses Raja of forging the press note of January 7, 2008, after it was seen by the then Solicitor General G E Vahanvati.
