He said the party's humiliating defeat in Delhi before the parliamentary elections gave wrong signals to the masses.

However, senior party leader Arun Jaitley denied that such a report (by the Apte Committee) existed or was discussed at the session.

'I am categorically stating that I have not seen such a report. Even my friend Ananth Kumar (who was sitting next to him during the press conference) has not seen (the report),' he told reporters here.

He refused to reply to the media's queries on the chintan baithak.

'I am not here to clarify on party's stand against expelled leader Jaswant Singh. The session is to review the general election results and to draw the roadmap for the party,' he said.

However, Jaitley said party president Rajnath Singh would brief the media on the concluding day Friday about the discussions in the introspection meeting.

The three-day session began with summary expulsion of Jaswant Singh, just two days after the release of his controversial book 'Jinnah - India, Partition, Independence'.
