New Delhi, Sept 18: Former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati today declined to comment on the Supreme Court order directing CBI to register an FIR against her and several IAS officers for alleged irregularities in the construction of Taj heritage project at Agra, saying she would give her reaction after reading the judgement. "I have not read the Supreme Court judgement. When I get a copy of the judgement through my lawyer, and only after reading it will I be able to give a reaction because I do not know what is written in the judgement," she said.

Meanwhile, BSP member in Lok Sabha Rashid Alvi sought to downplay the Supreme Court's directive saying it was not a jolt as CBI was already conducting an inquiry into the matter. Alvi said the apex court has only said that CBI should further investigate the matter and has not said anything against Mayawati.

"As far as Mayawati is concerned, nothing new has been said. CBI is already conducting an inquiry into the matter and Supreme Court has said further inquiry should be done," he added. Bureau Report
