New Delhi: Union finance minister Arun Jaitley on Wednesday dropped “hints” that a minister in the previous UPA government may be one of those who had stashed money abroad.
“I know who you are hinting at. But please wait for the appropriate time,” Mr Jaitley told a news channel.
Asked if he was not denying that there could be a minister from the UPA government, Mr Jaitley quipped, “I am neither confirming nor denying, I am only smiling.”
He said that in case charges are “approved against some politician and that politician, he or she happens to be member of a political party, the names will be made public.”
