Targeting Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) Vinod Rai again, senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh today alleged that Rai had violated the oath of secrecy.
“After Rai assumed the office of Comptroller and Auditor General, its reports started leaking.
Before him, Comptroller and Auditor General never made public the issues of confrontation with the Government in this way,” he alleged, saying that Rai had violated the oath of secrecy.
The Congress general secretary reiterated his allegation that he suspected Rai to have political ambitions, like his predecessor T N Chaturvedi.
The CAG arrived at the figure of Rs 1.86 lakh crore as the loss in coal allocation on the basis of “Opportunity Cost Audit”, he said.
In any case, Comptroller and Auditor General was not a probe agency, he added.
