Notwithstanding strident Opposition attack on Telecom Minister A Raja over 2-G spectrum allocation, government on Thursday dropped enough hints that no action against him was likely soon even as his party DMK strongly stood behind him.

In an apparent effort to forestall any action against Raja, DMK leader and party chief M Karunanidhi's daughter Kanimozhi met Finance Minister and Congress trouble-shooter Pranab Mukherjee here and is understood to have told him that he should not be removed from the Union Cabinet.
