Tuesday, April 19 2005 21:46 Hrs (IST) - World Time -

New Delhi:: Asserting that there was "no misunderstanding" within his Cabinet on the affidavit in the Kargil arms purchase case, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today (Apr 19, 2005) said Government would make a statement in Parliament tomorrow on the case.

In the face of a stalemate in Parliament over the issue, Singh said the Government has nothing to hide and was ready for any discussion in the two Houses.

"We are ready for any discussion. We have nothing to hide and Defence Minister (Pranab Mukherjee) will make a statement in Parliament tomorrow," he told reporters on the sidelines of a military investiture ceremony in Rashtrapati Bhavan.

"You are reading too much into what is stated in the first affidavit (filed in the Supreme Court in connection with Kargil arms purchase case)," Singh said.

Asked if there was any misunderstanding between the Law Minister and the Defence Minister on the issue, Singh said "There is no misunderstanding.
