Mansingh brushed aside the queries on the subject, saying "go and ask the members... No such thing has happened."
Sudha Mahalingam, Member (Distribution); YPC Dangay, Member (Legal) and BS Negi, Member (Infrastructure) confronted Mansingh, who is already under the government scrutiny, at the Board's meeting yesterday, officials present in the meeting said on condition of anonymity.
While the only other member L K Singhvi was not present during the meeting, but some other members confirmed the differences without elaborating.
Oil Ministry had only a few weeks ago asked Mansingh to explain the decision making process in view of complaints that it received against the function of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board.
