It seems that Salman Kurshid has taken over from Digvijay Singh to shoot off the remark.
In a scathing attack on the Opposition on 2 G, Coalgate scams, he used this opportunity to mount an attack on the CAG.
“Khurshid, writing in the latest issue of the party mouthpiece Congress Sandesh, accused the CAG of computing losses in a “callous manner” and noted that the Rs 1.86 lakh crore figure of undue benefits to private players in coal block allocation arrived by the audit body will stick in public mind.
Coming down heavily on the CAG, Tewari in his article “Why The CAG Is Wrong” said “the CAG does not have the constitutional or legal mandate to make its own policy prescriptions and then utilise them to compute notional or even mythical loss or gain”.
“Even when it chooses to do so, it ends up getting it grievously wrong. Headline hunting is a volatile vocation –perhaps it is time to end this parody”.
In the editorial, too, the journal says that the CAG has not taken the trouble to highlight that these are notional figures of possible profits that the government could have made if an alternate process had been followed.
“Actually the CAG’s report on coal block allocation is hypothetical. Nowhere has the CAG quantified the actual loss or even presumptive loss,” it said.”
Yes,CAG is Wrong,whatever is says is Notional.
But what is certain is that the Congress has endless Departments to make money.
.
Congress has also questioned the Election Commission,CVC and The Supreme Court in the past.
Election Commission does not have the legal authority to enforce Election Laws.
CVC can not investigate Corruption cases.
Supreme Court can not intrude on the powers of the Judiciary.
The only one whose Constitutional Authority can not be questioned is Sonia Gandhi‘s!
