Updated On: 25 March, 2013 02:06 PM IST | | Agencies
In wake of former Telecom Minister A Raja's accusation that Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh was in the loop in the policy decisions taken by his ministry, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday demanded the appointment of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate all the charges levelled against the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) in connection with the 2G spectrum scam.
BJP MP Balbir Punj said the charges made by Raja are very serious.
"He is an accused person in that scam, which amounts to 1,76,000 crores and now that accused person who is being prosecuted and jailed has clearly pointed out that the Prime Minister was not only fully in know of things, but he was a part of the whole decision-making. Now that Raja, the prime accused, has made this allegation, it is imperative that the investigating agencies also look into, inquire, investigate what Raja has said," Punj told mediapersons here.
