Kharge should file affidavit or review petition in court, says Swamy

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Public Accounts Committee (PAC) chairman Mallikarjun Kharge should file an affidavit or review petition in court saying he did not receive the CAG report in regard with the Rafale deal and the committee has not examined it, said Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Subramanian Swamy on Saturday.

Swamy made the statement soon after the Congress leader claimed that the Central Government lied in the Supreme Court about presenting the CAG report in the House and in the PAC.”Yes if he (Kharge) has not received, we have to take him at his word. He should file an affidavit in court saying he has not received it and the committee has not examined it. So what is there we don’t know.

They should file a review petition or an affidavit before court because he has been named so he has every right to file an affidavit and set the record straight,” Swamy told. “I can’t say whether it makes a material difference to the judgement or not. That only the judges can say. I do think that the record should be corrected,” he added.
