| PM’s pledge of scrutiny of bank A/Cs of BJP ministers, MPs, MLAs proved a farce: Harsh Dev Singh | | |  Early Times Report
UDHAMPUR, Mar 6: Reminding Prime Minister Narendra Modi of his directive in November 2016 calling upon the BJP Ministers, MPs and MLAs for submission of their bank accounts to party President Amit Shah as a measure of accountability and transparency, Harsh Dev Singh Chairman-JKNPP today said that people of the country wanted to know as to what action had been initiated in pursuance of the said disclosures made by BJP leaders with regard to their assets.
Singh while addressing public meetings in Nowah and Kashirah villages in Udhampur East assembly constituency said that with six years having elapsed since the issuance of the said order the people were curious to know whether it was yet another “Chunavi Jumla” or another melodramatic rant or a mere publicity campaign. He said that in case there was any seriousness in the PM’s directive, the BJP needed to come out with the names of BJP leaders charge-sheeted for disproportionate assets or money laundering after such disclosures or at least a statement that none of the BJP Ministers, MPs or MLAs was found to be in possession of black money or illegal cash.
Singh said that it was expected of the PM that he would not only expose and punish such leaders but also direct them to put their bank accounts and property details in public domain as a measure of transparency. He said that even J&K had several BJP ministers, MPs and MLAs who were accused of real estate scams, disproportionate assets and money laundering with the central and state unit of BJP failing to give any convincing clarification despite public outrage.
Singh said that several BJP ministers and a BJP MP have been reported to have created huge assets, taken loan from J&K Bank amounting to Rs. 30 crores and got it declared NPA besides having defied norms and procedures and violated the defence acts while constructing un-authorized structures. He said that even during demonetization a minister’s vehicle was widely reported to have been apprehended while carrying huge illegal cash for conversion into new currency notes.
“Similarly another minister’s spouse was reported to have been video-graphed while converting dirty cash into gold and still another minister accused of having taken several crores as bribe for granting permission for construction of private apartments in an environmentally fragile area of Jammu. In the same way, some BJP MLAs had been accused of raising palatial bungalows after elections besides raising huge moveable and immoveable assets which were disproportionate to their known sources of income,” said Singh. |
