Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader, Subramanian Swamy on Monday stated that what the Former Coal Secretary, P C Parekh's book on Coalgate has given more credence to the belief of what they had been saying all along that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has little authority over a government which he heads.

"The people should come to know what is the inside truth. Earlier when we used to say people used to take this as a political attack. I personally think that whatever he has written is true. Like the allocation of 2G spectrum happened on first come first serve basis , same thing happened here in the coal block allocation as well," Swamy said.

 

In his book "Crusader or Conspirator? Coalgate and other Truths" which is yet to be released former Coal secretary P C Parakh has embarrassed Prime Minister Manmohan Singh saying that there was little chance of lasting reform in the coal sector with the limitations within which the Prime Minister functioned.
