New Delhi: The Trinamool Congress (TMC), which is facing the Congress-Left combine in the West Bengal Assembly elections, on Monday sought to corner the Congress in Rajya Sabha by raising the AgustaWestland chopper issue and wanting to know who the 'Gandhi' and 'AP' are the alleged bribe seekers in the deal.
Raising the issue during Zero Hour, Sukhendu Shekhar Roy of the Trinamool Congress wanted to know who had taken bribe in the deal to buy 12 VVIP helicopters.
"Defence Minister has to give a statement. Why is the government silent? Who is this AP (named as alleged bribe taker in the deal)? Who is Gandhi? Who is Shashikant," he said.
He wanted the Defence Minister to make a statement on the issue after suspending regular business and matter discussed.
"Government has to disclose the identity (of bribe takers)," he said.
Deputy Chairman PJ Kurien said there was no rule for suspension of business during Zero Hour and disallowed his notice.
