PAC on PM:

  • The PM kept his office at "arm's length" in the 2G spectrum issue.
  • This helped Raja "to execute his unfair, arbitrary and dubious designs".
  • Gave an "indirect green signal" to Raja to go ahead and "execute his unfair, arbitrary and dubious designs".

PAC on PMO:

  • No suggestion of the Law Minister to set up an Empowered Group of Ministers was received by them does not convince the committee.
  • Either failed to see the "forebodings or was rendered a mute spectator".

On A Raja:

  • Highly perturbed to note that the considered and imperative advise given by the Prime Minister and genuine concerns expressed by him on the developments in the telecom sector in his November 2007 letter to Raja was "just disregarded".
  • Prime Minister was misled when he was informed by the minister (Raja) that the issue of auction of spectrum was considered but not recommended by the Telecom Commission and also not recommended by TRAI.
  • The minister was saying half truth, concealing the other half, concealing his ulterior design,".
