“This (coal block allocation) case is going to send a very, very adverse signal to both international and domestic investors,” Jaitley told PTI here.
The Leader of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha said it defied logic that a secretary to the government who recommends a coal block should be made an accused in an FIR filed by the CBI but the minister who sanctions the blocks should be out of it.
“The competent authority was the minister, the minister in this case happened to be the Prime Minister,” he said.
