Nothing more should be read into the situation: Renuka

New Delhi, Sep 30 (PTI) "How can one answer a question
like have you stopped beating your wife today?".
This was how Congress spokesperson Renuka Chowdhury
steered clear of questions whether Indian Home Minister P
Chidambaram had offered to quit during the crisis over the
controversial 2G note brought out by the Finance Ministry.
The Home Minister too, at his monthly presss conference
earlier, had parried questions on the truce between him and
Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee on the 2G note and whether
he had offered to quit during the crisis.
"I don't recall anything of that in the Ministry of Home
Affairs," Chidambaram said when a reporter asked him whether
Thursday's truce was a defeat for Mukherjee and a win for
him.
At the All India Congress Committee (AICC) briefing,
Chowdhury said "I don't think you should read anything more
into the situation ...There is no war between the two
ministers. That is a myth."
"They are responsible leaders. They are not children. I
don't think anyone needs to crack...We should not see shadow
where there is none." she said when asked about reports that
Congress President Sonia Gandhi cracked the whip to bring
about truce between Mukherjee and Chidambaram.
Noting that the 2G matter was with the JPC and the
courts, she wondered as to "why we should rewind and replay
all the time".
