Jaitley says Amar Singh trying to save his face by planting fake CDs

New Delhi, Aug 4 : BJP General Secretary Arun Jaitley today launched his second scathing attack on his Samajwadi Party counterpart Amar Singh, saying that the CD which the latter had shown earlier in the day depicting BJP MP Phagan Singh Kulaste in bad light was fake and that he was trying to save himself from embarrassment over the "cash-for-votes" scam to win the Trust Vote for Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh.

He said that the press conference called by SP chief Mulayam Singh Yadav and two union cabinet ministers Lalu Prasad Yadav and Ramvilas Paswan was a UPA's "Cabinet Committee on Forgery and Fabrication", which, he added, was involved in showing "fabricated" CDs to prove their innocence in the cash-for-vote scam.

To once again establish Amar Singh's Personal Assistance Sanjiv Saxena's role in the scam, as far as bribing the three BJP MPs is concerned, Jaitley distributed photocopies of Admission Form of Saxena's son in one of the Delhi University colleges whereby he mentions the official address of his father as 27, Lodhi Estate, which actually is the official residence of Amar Singh in the Capital, and also mentions the landline phone number (32565397) allotted in Amar Singh's name.

On the occasion, Jaitley asked the Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh as to which levels will he let his UPA allies to make him fall to prove that his Trust Vote was won without any money exchanging hands.

He said that today's politics had stooped to unprecedented lower levels, because a section of UPA allies had been indulging in activities to bring a bad name to the present day Centre government.
