Former Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee yesterday refused to disclose the source of his information in CBI on fodder scam and asserted that as for my source of information, it is a matter of privilege.
The source of this information is immaterial, Vajpayee contended and argued that the pertinent issue was whether the information was correct or not.
During the discussion on the fodder scam in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday, some members from the treasury benches sought to obfuscate the issue at hand by raising question about the source of Vajpayee's information.
The fact that the news of the CBI's intention to seek permission to chargesheet Bihar Chief Minister Laloo Prasad Yadav came a day after Vajpayee's letter gave Yadav and the Left parties a chance to question the integrity of the CBI's move.
Responding to these allegations, Vajpayee said in a statement that all kinds of unwarranted motives were being attributed to his letter to Gujral.
My letter was an expression of apprehension
