To a question on the reaction of the Congress
party over the statement of BJP that there is a
conspiracy behind the suicidal death of Mr.
Sadiq Batcha - an aide of Shri A. Raja, Smt.
Natarajan said I have seen the news report. I am
not aware of the details. According to the news
reports, apparently reported around 1.30 pm, the
BJP has already found a conspiracy. I do not
want to actually make further comment on this
but it would be wise to be restraint until all
other details are out before establishing any
conspiracy theory and it would be welcome if the
BJP can be little more responsibl
