Did not refer to Vyapam case as simple and silly: D. V. Sadananda Gowda

New Delhi, July 7 (IBNS): Minister of Law and Justice D. V. Sadananda Gowda on Tuesday denied calling Vyapam case as 'simple and silly'.
"Hon’ble Minister of Law and Justice has clarified that he did not refer to Vyapam case as simple and silly. He used the words simple and silly with reference to Lalit Modi issue," read a statement issued by his office. 

"He said Hon’ble Prime Minister need not answer queries related to linking Lalit Modi issue with Vyapam case. He in fact had stated that Vyapam case is a matter of serious concern, which was not shown on TV Channels," it said.

"He once again reiterates he did not refer to Vyapam case as a simple issue," read the statement.

Two days after he flatly refused to invite a CBI investigation into the Vyapam scam, Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Tuesday buckled under mounting pressure to ask the High Court for a probe by the central agency.


"I request High Court to handover the probe to CBI...With a CBI probe, everything will be crystal clear in the case," he told a press conference.

" The government should be above suspicion. We need to answer if any questions are raised," Chouhan said.
