BSP member Satish Chandra Mishra is understood to have said that members would be in a position to comment on it only after reading it, while DMK member Adhi Sankar, whose party had been opposed to the report, wanted the PAC to call more witnesses in connection with the 2G scam issue.

BJD member Bhartruhari Mahtab is learnt to have said that the speaker, had given no specific direction to the PAC, nor had she rejected it.

He pointed out that in her letter to the PAC chairman, had referred to the document as a "draft report".

Natarajan also sought to know the basis on which Joshi had written to the speaker about the "unruly behaviour" of the Congress members during the PAC meeting on 28 April.

The PAC meeting on 28 April had descended into a bedlam with the UPA managing to secure the support of BSP and SP to obtain a surprising majority which "rejected" the draft report on the 2G scam. The report was sharply critical of prime minister, his office and others.

Joshi then sent the report to speaker Meira Kumar with a covering letter outlining the sequence of events during the meeting. The speaker later returned the draft report, stating it had not been adopted by the panel.
