Amar Singh dares Mayawati to take action against him |
Samajwadi Party General Secretary Amar Singh on Monday said he will send all
details of
his share-holdings in various companies to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati
and challenged her to take action against him. "I will send Mayawati all details
of my share-holdings in various comapnies whether it is Mukesh Ambani's company,
or the Infosys, the NTPC or the ONGC. She can lodge criminal FIRs against all
of them in Babupurwa Police Station (Kanpur)," said Singh. "Increase in share-capital
with mutual consent of different companies and share-holders, and mergers with
consent of jurisdiction of the High Court concerned was a legal process," he added.
Giving examples of Mukesh Ambani and Infosys Chief Mentor Narayan Murthy, he said:
"Is Mayawati above Income Tax Department, the Union Government's Company Affairs
Ministry or the High Court where such a deal is registered?" Alleging that Mayawati
had lodged 170 cases against him, he said: "All these cases were later quashed
by the courts." Raking up the case of allotment of a plot to him allegedly under
the Economically Weaker Section category, he said the plot was alloted to him
by BSP leader Kanshi Ram. "She alleged that I made a CD of her posing as a living
Goddess and asking people to offer her Gangajal," he added. On October 16, a 14-page
complaint of fraud was filled at the Babupurwa Police Station in Kanpur against
Amar Singh, his wife Pankaja Kumari Singh and cine icon Amitabh Bachchan. Shiv
Kant Tiwari, the person who filed the complaint, claimed that all three had been
involved in a financial fraud amounting to about Rs 500 crore. They have been
charged with amalgamating companies for converting black money into white between
2003 and 2008. The companies named in the FIR included the Energy Development
Company Limited, the EDCL Power Limited, the Pankaja Art and Credit Limited, the
Sarvottam Cap Limited, the EDCL Infrastructure Limited and the Eastern India Company,
all owned or run by the Singh couple. The FIR was lodged under various Sections
of IPC, Prevention of Corruption Act and Prevention of Laundering Act. |
