NDA targets PM, asks him to form JPC or quit

New Delhi, December 22: Taking the fight against corruption to the streets, BJP-led NDA today targetted Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for the scams in UPA government demanding that he form a JPC and depose before it or quit.

At a rally here, the first of a series of cross-country protests by NDA in the run up to the budget session of Parliament, senior BJP leader L K Advani, described 2010 as a “year of stinking scams” and appealed to the Prime Minister even at this stage to redeem himself by setting up a JPC to go into the 2G spectrum scam.

All the speakers, including leaders from JD(U), Shiv Sena and Shiromani Akali Dal, made Manmohan Singh the focus of their attack, saying since he is ready to appear before the Public Accounts Committee he should have no objection to deposing before a Joint Parliamentary Committee.
