New Delhi: Congress General Secretary Digvijay Singh has expressed happiness over the central government's decision to set up a Commission of Inquiry into the Gujarat snoopgate case.
Singh has also expressed confidence that the panel will submit its report soon.
He was of the view that this should have happened much earlier and rejected the Narendra Modi government's two-member probe panel established to investigate the matter, likening it to an "accused appointing the investigation agency".
"I congratulate the central government. It should have happened much earlier because there is open violation of Indian Telegraph Act and Information Technology Act in this. Responsibility should be fixed in this matter.
"And I am confident that this commission will soon submit its report," Singh told reporters soon after the Union Cabinet gave its nod to set up a Commission of Inquiry into the "snooping" on a woman in Gujarat allegedly at the behest of the BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate.
