In both the Indira Gandhiand Rajiv Gandhi assassination chargesheets, filed under Congress dispensations,the primeaccused were deceased but figured in column 2 of the respective chargesheets, he pointed out."That doesnt make it right," argued Sibal later. Sonia, inher address to the Congress Parliamentary Party (CPP), said she wasupset that Jaitley should have equated the main accused in the Indira Gandhi and RajivGandhiassassinations with her late husband.
