Congress President Sonia Gandhi has met Prime Minister Manmohan Singh even as the political controversy over the Volcker Committee report refuses to die down.
The meeting came a day after the NDA-led Opposition stepped up pressure and decided to meet President A P J Abdul Kalam to press for the ouster of Natwar Singh.
Congress had unequivocally and categorically denied any knowledge of or connection with any Iraqi "oil-for-food" contracts.
The party had also sent a legal notice to the UN as well as to the Volcker Committee.
Sonia’s meeting with the Prime Minister also came amid reports of a possible reshuffle-cum-expansion of Union Council of Ministers ahead of the Winter Session of Parliament beginning November 23. (With PTI inputs)
