Former Law Minister HR Bhardwaj attacks Chidambaram over 2G Scam, Politicos React

New Delhi, Nov 11 (ANI): Former Law Minister Hans Raj Bhardwaj accused former Finance Minister P Chidambaram for "not doing enough to stop the 2G scam". He said that Manmohan Singh was one of the most honest leaders India had and that it was not him but Chidambaram who was at fault in the case. Reacting on the same, Congress leader PC Chacko said that although Chidambaram was not involved in the case, but it was not fair on his part to blame Manmohan Singh as the responsibility of the scam was on Chidambaram himself. NCP leader Majid Memon said that the former Finance minister should have worked with responsibility when he was in power. Meanwhile, BJP Spokesperson GVL Narasimha Rao said that this blame game in Congress is taking place to come to greener pastures of politics by blaming their own senior leaders. Nov 11, 2014
