New Delhi: The Congress on Thursday said the truth in the 2G spectrum allocation case had finally prevailed and Prime Minister Narendra Modi should apologise to the nation for its "propaganda" against the party.

A special court on Thursday acquitted all the accused in the 2G scam case, which had rocked the Manmohan Singh-led UPA-II regime.

"One thing is clear... the allegation of a major scam involving the highest levels of government was never true and not correct and that has been established," former finance minister and senior Congress leader P Chidambaram said.
