Textiles Minister Dayanidhi Maran, who is in the eye of a storm in the wake of the CBI’s report to Supreme Court implicating him in the 2G spectrum scam, attended a meeting of the Union Cabinet today and made no offer to resign.
A minister, who declined to be identified, replied in the negative when asked whether Maran has resigned or has offered to resign. He came a little late to the meeting which started at 1100 hrs.
Yesterday, the CBI placed a status report on the 2G scam probe in the Supreme Court in which it alleged that Maran had “forced” Aircel owner to sell its stakes in favour of a Malayasian firm which was granted spectrum licence.
