In a terse reply to social activist Anna Hazare's letter charging her party with running a smear campaign, Congress president Sonia Gandhi yesterday said she had already made her views clear on the issue in an earlier comminique. "I received your letter dated June 9, 2011. Since I was not in Delhi I could not reply to it. In the meantime, you have also made it public. I will get information in this regard. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/jun/sonia.jpg" border="5" /> As far as the questions about the issues raised in the letter are concerned, I have already made my views clear in my letter dated April 19, 2011," Gandhi has said in the letter. Hazare had written the letter to Gandhi complaining against Congress media department head Janaradhan Dwivedi calling him an RSS-BJP "mask". The social activist had refuted these allegations and challenged the Congress, through the letter, to prove their charge. He had termed this a "conspiracy" of the Congress and the UPA ministers to defame him, so that he loses his support. He had informed Gandhi that he was hurt by these comments. In her reply to Hazare, Gandhi has mentioned the April 19, 2011, letter to him in which she had said that she does not support smear campaigns against anybody. "As for statements appearing in the media, let me assure you that I do not support nor encourage the politics of smear campaigns," Gandhi had said in the earlier letter.
