Farukhabad: In the eye of a storm over
his Muslim sub-quota remarks and the subsequent face-off with
the Election Commission, Union Law Minister Salman Khurshid
on Tuesday said the matter was a closed chapter now.
"This chapter is closed now," Khurshid told mediapersons
who sought his reaction on the row.
Khurshid along with Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dixit is
here to attend an election meeting in support of his wife
Louis Khurshid who is contesting the UP assembly election from
Farukhabad.
Earlier in the day, the Election Commission said it was
yet to take a decision on Khurshid`s letter regretting his
remarks.
In a letter to the EC late last night, the Minister said
said he "bows to the wisdom of the EC" and has given his
personal commitment to ensure that such a situation will not
arise again.
