New Delhi, Apr 27 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) attacked opposition Congress party and demanded they divulge names of all members involved in the multi-million dollar helicopter deal scam. In February 2010, then ruling Congress awarded a tender to Italian industry group Finmeccanica's Agusta Westland for 12 choppers for VVIP use. Addressing a news conference on the same, Telecom Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad demanded that A.K. Antony, defence minister of the country in 2013, reveal all names associated with the scandal. Congress leader Anand Sharma responded by calling BJP's allegations baseless. The BJP has decided to take on the Congress party over the VVIP chopper deal case in the second leg of the budget session that started.
