A day after Arvind Kejriwal and Prashant Bhushan levelled the charges that Vadra was hugely favoured by realty major DLF, Khurshid told reporters here that if an inquiry was to be done, it should rather be against them who have made such baseless allegations.
Khursid was responding to queries on the sidelines of a two-day Literary Festival that concluded here tonight.
Justifying Congress leaders coming to the defence of party chief Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law, the Law Minister said when the purpose of picking up someone for attack is to hit the leader of the party, "we will obviously come out to defend."
Stating that it was "shameful" to blame someone for political gains, Khurshid said even the documents produced did not establish that Vadra was given any unsecured or interest-free loan.
The papers suggest he was given the property against the property sold by him which can be done by anybody rightfully, he said.
Instead of levelling baseless allegations, people must have all the facts and must appeal to an agency with an affidavit for an inquiry, the Law Minister said.
Khurshid had earlier slammed Kejriwal and Bhushan, dubbing the allegations against Vadra as reflecting the "bankrupt ideas of a stillborn party".
