Former CAG official R P Singh questions 2G loss figure

The former director general, Post and Telecommunications at Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG), R P Singh has alleged that he was asked to sign off on the controversial 2G report by CAG headquarters even though he did not agree with the report's findings. He further said that the loss figure of 1.76 lakh crore rupees was questionable as it was presumptive. He also added that even CAG had agreed upon this point. Singh also told that CAG officials visited the residence of BJP leader Murli Manohar Joshi, chairman of Parliament's Public Accounts Committee (PAC), to help him prepare the panel's report on the 2G spectrum allocation.
