New Delhi: An inquiry commission report in just 15 days, or a political match-fixing? Many eyebrows were raised when Union minister Kapil Sibal on Friday announced that UPA government will name a judge for investigating the Gujarat ‘snoopgate’ before May 16. It comes a day after Arun Jaitley claimed that no judge will “lend” himself to the “political and malafide” exercise targeting Narendra Modi.
“You will get a snoopgate judge before May 16. I don’t know why these people are so worried? Why leaders of BJP are worried and why they are making public statement that no judge should join this commission?” he said. “BJP is worried as its leaders know the fact that “once the commission is set up there is no saving for Narendra Modi,” he added.
The minister also questioned the Gujarat government-appointed snoopgate probe panel, saying, “It will never move forward” as it was appointed “by the Chief Minister who is sought to be prosecuted”.
