Jaswant issue: Congress says no comment on subterranean shenanigans

Congress today suggested that the resignation of Jaswant Singh as chairman of the Public Accounts Committee of Parliament showed the "subterranean shenanigans" between BJP and its former member.
   
"The Congress need not comment on the subterranean shenanigans between the BJP and its former member. We can hardly comment on stands and loyalties which change by the hour, more frequently than the weather," party spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi said here.

In a sudden development, Singh has resigned as chairman of the prestigious panel, which he had refused to quit when he had a bitter parting of ways with the BJP four months ago.

His resignation raised questions whether there was any rapprochement with the BJP but the 71-year-old leader ruled out any such possibility saying his action was not not under "any pressure" or done with  "some calculation".
