“The government position is very clear from the day one that we are ready for the debate…. The Opposition was finding excuses to avoid discussion but today morning they were taken by surprise when we announced that the Prime Minister will participate in the debate.
“Now they are inventing and manufacturing reasons to escape the debate,” Jaitley told reporters here.
Lashing out at the previous UPA government, Jaitley alleged that “the maximum black money was generated during the 2004-14 as well as the period was engulfed in various scams like 2G and coal scam”.
“We are not surprise that they did not like the anti-black money measures the government has taken…Those who did not consider the generation of so much black money and scams during their regime as blunder are now finding the crusade against black money as blunder,” he said.
