Govt to respond to SC order in 2G scam: Congress

It is for the govt to respond to SC order in 2G scam: Congress
The Congress has left it to the govt to respond to the Supreme Court verdict in 2G scam cancelling 122 2G spectrum licences even as the party noted that it had not passed any remarks against Home Min P Chidambaram.

"The Supreme Court has taken a decision. The government will respond to it," AICC General Secretary and incharge of media department, Janardhan Dwivedi said in New Delhi on Thursday.

The party also noted that the apex court has not passed any remark against Chidambaram for his alleged role in the 2G case but it withheld detailed comment pending a study of the order.

"We have respect for the judgement of the Supreme Court. They have not passed any remarks against Home Minister P Chidambaram and as far as telecom licenses are concerned which are cancelled, we have not gone through the judgement so far," party spokesperson Rashid Alvi said on Thursday.

He said it is too early to comment on the judgement. "Let us go through the judgement," he added.

The Supreme Court on Thursday left it to the trial court to decide on the demand for investigation of the alleged role of Chidambaram into the 2G spectrum allocation scam but refused to give direction to CBI on the issue.

Meanwhile, Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Rajiv Shukla has said that legal experts would study the Supreme Court judgement in the 2G case soon.

On opposition attacking the government on the issue, Shukla said that it has become a habit of the political opponents to comment on various issues even before understanding them.
