''The PMO has never been above the scrutiny of JPC, party spokesman S Jaipal Reddy, who is also a member of the JPC on the stock market scam, told reporters. He replied in the affirmative when asked whether the role of Ranjan Bhattacharya would be looked into by the JPC. Reddy's statement came hours after the Lok Sabha Speaker G M C Balayogi announced in the house that the JPC on the stock market scam headed by BJP member Prakash Mani Tripathi would go into all matters connected with the UTI imbroglio. Reddy said since the Speaker had powers to give ''additional directions'' to the JPC, it would address the concerns voiced by his party.
