New Delhi, Oct 26 (PTI) Describing the 2-G Spectrum allocation controversy as the biggest scam in independent India, BJP today criticised Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for defending Telecom Minister A Raja while the investigations are still on.

"Even as the investigations are going on and the accusing finger categorically points to the Telecommunication Minister A Raja, the Prime Minister has today made a statement that the allegations against him were not correct," Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Arun Jaitley said, terming the incident as the biggest scam in Independent India.

He also took a dig at the Prime Minister for stating that "whatever the opposition says is not always correct".

The BJP leader was critical of Singh's reply to a question on Raja's contention that the Prime Minister was in the loop about the decisions taken in regard to spectrum allocation.
