| Stepping up his attack on the BJP over the Telecom policy pursued by its government in 1999, Telecom Minister Kapil Sibal today said the Opposition party should not forget that it has skeletons in its cupboard.
Referring to his charge that the country had lost Rs 1.43 lakh crore during the NDA rule due to the changes it made in the Telecom policy, Sibal said, "This is not to take revenge but to tell them that please look inwards before you start attacking institutions and destroying that very substratum of Parliamentary democracy".
Sibal had yesterday claimed that the government "actually" lost Rs 1.43 lakh crore in revenue in 1999 because of the then BJP-led NDA regime shifting to a revenue sharing system from fixed license fee for Telecom operations.
Asked whether his charge would be investigated, he said, "They have a lot of skeletons in their cupboard which is why I mentioned it (the loss of Rs 1.43 lakh crore)".
