New Delhi [India], April 7 : NCP chief and senior opposition leader Sharad Pawar has said that there is "no need" of a Joint Parliamentary Committee probe into the Ad issue since the Supreme Court-appointed committee is examining the relevant issues and that it seems the Ad group was "targeted" in the Hindenburg Research report."....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.NCP chief's remarks are at variance with those of Congress which has insisted on a JPC probe into the Hindenburg-Ad row. Some other opposition parties have also supported the demand for a JPC probe.Pawar, a former union minister, said a demand was raised for a probe into Ad issue and the Supreme Court took the initiative and appointed a committee which has retired a SC judge, experts, administrators and economists.He said the committee has been given guidelines, a timeframe and asked to submit the probe report.He said the Opposition wanted a Parliamentary Committee to probe the matter and added that BP has a majority in Parliament."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 majority 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.The second half of the budget session saw continuous disruptions over JPC demand for a probe into the Hindenburg-Ad row.The Supreme Court had last month set up a six-member expert committee "to investigate if there was a regulatory failure in dealing with the alleged contravention of laws pertaining to the securities market in relation to the Ad Group or other compes".The committee was asked to give the report in two months.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
