Controversies"Headless chicken" remarkIn August 2007, Sen was issued notice (and subsequently censured) by the Parliamentary Privileges Committee to explain the "headless chicken" remark he is alleged to have made in an off-the-record interview, which was published by "rediff.com" on 20, August 2007, titled: "We will have zero credibility" on the Atomic Energy Pact. Sen had said: "It has been approved here (in Washington, DC) by the President, and there (in New Delhi) it's been approved by the Indian cabinet. So why do you have all this running around like a headless chicken, looking for a comment here or comment there, and these little storms in a tea-cup?" Following the uproar over this remark, Sen later tendered his apology before the Parliamentary Privileges Committee. Sen clarified: " "My comment about "running round like headless chicken looking for a comment here or comment there" was a tactless observation on some of my media friends, and most certainly not with reference to any Honourable Member of Parliament."" The Rajya Sabha panel decided to close the issue, since "Sen has tendered unconditional and sincere apologies". "In view of Sen's acceptance of having made the impugned remarks and that the same were unwarranted, and having tendered his unconditional apology, the Committee recommends that the matter should be allowed to rest here," the Rajya Sabha Committee said, in its report, tabled in the House. In its uncharacteristic censure, The Rajya Sabha panel felt his remarks were: "not only in poor taste but also unwarranted .. personal frame of mind should not have influenced public utterances of a senior and experienced diplomat .. The Committee expects that such lapses, as admitted by him, shall not recur"[3] References1. ^{{cite news | title=The US made Headley, an undertrial, available to us.
