Union ministers only committed to govt work: Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi

Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi dismissed the allegation made by SP's RS member Naresh Agrawal that Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley and other ministers were busy doing their personal business.

New Delhi, March 27: None of the ministers in the Narendra Modi government are engaged in any private business, and all are "committed" to government work, parliament was told on Monday.

Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi dismissed the allegation made by Samajwadi Party's Rajya Sabha member Naresh Agrawal that Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley and other ministers were busy doing their personal business while being part of the council of ministers.

"It's factually wrong. All ministers are committed to their assigned work," he said.
