इशरत जहां मामले पर हलफमानों में बदलाव को लेकर बीजेपी की आलोचना का शिकार हो रहे पूर्व गृह मंत्री पी चिदंबरम ने आज पलटवार करते हुए कहा कि हलफनामा विवा वास्तविक मुद्दे से केवल ध्यान हटाने के लिए खड़ा किया गया है और वास्तविक मुद्दा यह है कि यह एक फर्जी मुठभेड़ थी या नहीं.
1. The Govt is intolerant to the slightest criticism. A junior Minister was asked to snub the Governor of the Reserve Bank. For what?

2. For quoting an ancient proverb to highlight the fact that instead of getting euphoric, we should b level headed & look at unfinished task
— P. Chidambaram (@PChidambaram_IN) April 25, 2016
3. That was the thrust of Dr. Rajan's remarks. But they are finding fault with his choice of words? And delivering a snub to him in Public!

4. I think far from diminishing the stature of Dr.RaghuramRajan, Govt has exposed its inability to tolerate even slightest criticism.
— P. Chidambaram (@PChidambaram_IN) April 25, 2016
5. In my view, Dr.Rajan was not criticising or disparaging the growth. He was only highlighting the unfinished work!

6. The affidavit controversy is only to divert attention from the real issue in the Ishrat Jahan case.
— P. Chidambaram (@PChidambaram_IN) April 25, 2016
7. Real issue is whether there was fake encounter & whether FOUR people already in custody were KILLED in that FAKE ENCOUNTER.

8. Coming to the affidavits, the Home Minister does not sign affidavits. It is signed by an Under Secretary.

9. Although I have no recollection of seeing the first affidavit, let us presume that I did. Then came the report of Magistrate SP Tamang.
— P. Chidambaram (@PChidambaram_IN) April 25, 2016
10. This report caused an uproar & there was demand mainly from Gujarat that Government of India… (Contd)
— P. Chidambaram (@PChidambaram_IN) April 25, 2016
11. (Contd) should clarify or dispel misinterpretation being placed on the First affidavit. This is why a Second, short affidavit was filed!
