Rajdeep is a reputed journalist and we must not forget that during the last sting operation in U.P., he was asked to personally appear in the UP Assembly. He was questioned about the authencity of the tapes and many other questions. I am not his Spokesperson, but it seems that he got a strong lesson from there that it is not wise to telecast the tapes, before the CD is verified by the competent authority. So he chose to submit the CD to the Speaker. Otherwise, just like the 3 BJP members, who are going to face the constitutional wrath, Rajdeep and his Channel would have landed in trouble too, for no mistake of his.
The only thing, which is objectionable in the whole episode, is his flambuyonant & over aggressive Anchors (who should have been in Bollywood and fill the void of 'Angry Young Man' left by Amitabh Bachchan) whose only mission is to create sensation. And that is why they declared that the Tape has been handed over, which actually was submitted much later. So, the country must understand the Constitutional position & stop attacking Rajdeep Sardesai below the belt. Chetan Upadhyaya

atul is right...he himself said he is going (at that point in time), not the anchors.
