Cong tries to control damage, says Pitroda's view not party's

Congress dissociated itself from chairman of Indian Overseas Congress Sam Pitroda's comments on inheritance tax and said his remarks were being sensationalised by the media to create a controversy. The party made it clear that it had no plan whatsoever to introduce inheritance tax and reminded that former PM Rajiv Gandhi had abolished estate duty in 1985.
