The opposition parties led by Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) are up in arms following the leakage of JPC draft report which gave clean chit to the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and the Finance Minister P Chidambaram in 2G case.

Lambasting the report which the party called a Congress report, BJP spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad said it intended to save the Congress leaders and the prime minister.

Terming the leakage of the report as the gross breach of Parliamentary propriety, he said any report draft is debated, discussed, amendments are moved in the formal meeting and thereafter views are taken.

The Communist Party of India (CPI) on the other has said that the report is not acceptable to it. The party leader D Raja termed it as  "prejudged and prejudiced".

He said that the report is covering facts and is an attempt to provide a shield to a few and accusing one individual meaning former telecom minister A Raja.

Meanwhile the prime accused A Raja who has already served 15 months in jail in 2G case has said that he kept the prime minister in loop about the change in the spectrum allocation policy

Talking to reporters in Chennai he said that he had done everything in consultation with the Prime Minister. “After demitting office, I told everyone that whatever I did was in consultation with the Prime Minister” he said.

Last month while responding to the written questions of Joint Parliamentary Committee raja had said that the prime minister Manmohan Singh and the then finance minister Pranab Mukherjee had full knowledge of policy decisions.

He had also slammed the Attorney General G.E. Vahanvati for telling lies about  the change in controversial press release related to the mobile licences allotted during his tenure. Vahanvati had alleged that that Raja had changed it.
 
JPC Chairman Chacko, has defended the draft report saying it was based on the terms of reference which covered a ten-year period.
