The Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee and Defense Minister AK Antony met Sonia Gandhi. The purpose of the meeting was to bring the row to an end. This row has been raised out of the controversial finance ministry note on 2G spectrum.
Pranab Mukherjee’s discussion with Sonia Gandhi came a day after his letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
This letter refuted the widely held perception that the controversial note suggested Chidambaram had agreed in to Raja’s stubborn insistence to give away 2G Spectrum in 2008 at 2001 prices. As during that time Chidambaram was a Finance Minister in UPA-1.
The letter opposed that the “Finance Minister was behind the note which was seen as a result of the widely perceived rivalry between the two senior ministers.”
According to the party sources, the Defense Minister AK Antony held meetings with Gandhi before Mukherjee’s meeting. Mr Antony also had some discussions with Sonia’s Political Secretary, Ahmed Patel.
In the last three days, this is the second meeting of Mukherjee with Sonia Gandhi. On the other hand, P Chidambaram the Home Minister had met Gandhi earlier this week.
