2G scam: PM should face ‘agni pariksha’,says Anna

Though he has not done anything wrong,Prime Minister Manmohan Singh should not shy away from “agni pariksha”(test by fire) in the 2G spectrum case,Anna Hazare said.

“The Prime Minister should face it. His name has come up. He should face agni pariksha. If he comes out clean,it will only do good. Why should one fear that?” the anti-corruption crusader said in a press conference.

Hazare said he cannot say Singh has wronged.

Hazare was responding a question on whether he thought that the Prime Minister should face a probe in the 2G spectrum scam.

“Is Manmohan Singh not clean? But what is the use? He is remote controlled,” he said.
