No participation of Kalmadi in CPP meeting

New Delhi, August 20: Suresh Kalmadi, who is in the eye of a storm over alleged corruption in the Commonwealth Games, did not attend the Congress Parliamentary Party (CPP) meeting on Thursday.

This was despite the fact that the meeting was convened by the Congress MP from Pune in his capacity as CPP Secretary.

Party sources said Kalmadi was asked to stay away from the meeting where Congress President Sonia Gandhi said the government will look into the allegations of malpractices and spare no one found to be involved in them after the event.

Kalmadi had also not participated in the discussions in the Lok Sabha on the Commonwealth Games held last week.
