Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 8 : Responding to NCP patriarch Sharad Pawar's explosive statement that there was no need for a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) probe into the Hindenburg report on the Ad Group, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut on Saturday said that the TMC and NCP have their own opinions on the Ad issue but the same will not affect Opposition unity.Despite Pawar's divergent opinion in the matter, which he articulated during an interview with a television news channel on Friday, the NCP has backed the demand for a JPC probe into the claims made by the US short-seller against the Ad Group.However, the Trinamool Congress, which is the ruling party in West Bengal, has not clarified its position on the issue.In a press conference earlier on Saturday, the NCP chief reiterated his stand in the interview, saying that the Supreme Court-appointed committee will be more reliable and unbiased in its probe into the claims made in the report against the Indian conglomerate."Sharad Pawar said that the Opposition is demanding a JPC but nothing will come out of it as the chairman of the committee will be from the BJP. The TMC and NCP may hold different opinions on Ad. It will not affect the Opposition unity," said Raut.Senior NCP leader and the son-in-law of the party's patriarch, Ajit Pawar said, "I also watched Pawar Saheb's interview on TV. He is our top leader and once he has articulated his stand on a subject, we don't need to comment on it. His stand will also be the party's position in the matter."Earlier, on Friday, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said even though the NCP has a different view, 19 like-minded Opposition parties are convinced that the Ad issue is grave in nature.Responding to Pawar's remarks, Ramesh said despite differences, that all 20 Opposition parties were "united" and will fight to "defeat" the BJP.Ramesh said in a statement, "The NCP may have a divergent view but 19 like-minded Opposition parties are convinced that the PM-linked Ad Group issue is real and very serious.""But all 20 like-minded Opposition parties, including the NCP, are united and will be together in saving the Constitution and our democracy from the BJP's assaults and in defeating the BJP's divisive and destructive political, social and economic agenda," he added.On whether his statement would harm the Opposition unity at a time when major Opposition players are adamant on a JPC into the Ad row, Pawar said, "As far as the Opposition unity is concerned, I do not see the demand for a JPC have anything to do with it. My party has extended support to the JPC demand but I feel that the panel will be dominated by ruling party members. That's why I am saying that the demand for a JPC probe should not be linked with Opposition unity."Reiterating that the probe by the Supreme Court-appointed committee will be reliable, the NCP chief said one should also introspect on the relevance one should give to a "foreign company" and the position it has taken on an "internal matter" of the country."I don't know what Hindenburg is. A foreign company is taking a stand on an internal matter of this country and we should think that how much relevance that company has for us. We should, instead, demand a Supreme court-monitored probe by a committee appointed by it," said Pawar.The NCP chief's remarks are at variance with those of the Congress, which has insisted on a JPC probe into the Hindenburg report on the Ad group. Several other Opposition parties have supported the demand for a JPC probe."....Someone gave a statement, and it created uproar in the country. Such statements were given earlier too, which created ruckus. But the importance given to the issue this time was out of proportion. There was a need to think who raised the issue (gave report). We had not heard the name who gave the statement. What is the background?. When such issues are raised, they create uproar in the country, the cost is borne ....how it impacts the economy. We can't ignore such things, and it seems (it) was targeted," Pawar told NDTV in an interview.He said the SC-appointed committee has been given guidelines, and a timeframe to submit its probe report.He said the Opposition, which has been raising a ruckus in the Parliament to press for a JPC, should realise that the BJP has a majority in both Houses."Today, who has the majority in Parliament? The ruling party. The demand was against the ruling party. The committee to probe against the ruling party will have a majority of members from the ruling party. How will the truth come out, there can be apprehensions. If Supreme Court investigates the matter, where there is no influence, there is a better chance of the truth coming out. And once the SC announced a committee for probing the matter, there was no need of JPC (probe)," he said.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
