Reactions flow after Jethmalani questions govt's inability to reveal names of black money holders

New Delhi, Oct 25 (ANI): Political reactions flowed on Saturday after senior lawyer Ram Jethmalani questioned the government's inability in a letter to Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in revealing names of black money holders. Congress leader Abhishek Manu Singhvi said that Jethmalani has said the right thing as BJP used to raise the issue of revealing names of black money holders and now it is repeating what UPA did. BJP leader Sambit Patra said that Jethmalani's letter does not need to be reverted back as he himself once said that Congress is the friend and father of black money. CPI leader D Raja said that almost all political parties have been demanding the government to reveal the names of all black money holders whether inside or outside the country. NCP leader Majid Memon said that Jethmalani has raised thecorrect issue because BJP is not fulfilling its promise made prior to elections to the people. Oct 25, 2014
