 Press Note                                                                                   15th March, 2011

  • BJP is talking about crusade against black money in the country then why it should object to IT action against black money in Gujarat.
  • Income Tax is taking action against black money not only in Gujarat but in the entire country.
  • BJP industrialists are taking away land worth crores of rupees through bogus MOU’s
  • Industrialists signing MOU’s have black money of BJP leaders.
  • Black money detected by IT will be used in the development of Gujarat and India.
  • Income Tax has sought details of industrialists signing MOU’s of Rs 1,000 crore and more and not ordinary people.

 Minister of BJP ruled Gujarat government Saurabh Patel was caught in embarrassing position when he started advocating for people having black money since his own party has launched a campaign against black money in the country.

 Instead of lauding efforts of Congress to help bring out black money in the country by exposing bogus MOU racket which is used to run black money economy, BJP is advocating for the people involved in the black money racket.

 BJP industrialists are taking away land worth crores of rupees through bogus MOU’s. Leader of Opposition in the Assembly Shaktisinh Gohil said that industrialists signing MOU’s have black money of BJP leaders. He said that IT investigations would expose their black money and so they were making it an issue speaking in the House, Gohil said BJP is talking about crusade against black money in the country then why it should object to IT action against black money in Gujarat. He said that all state governments cooperate with the Income Tax department while Gujarat opposed it.

 He said that this exposed the BJP policy about black money and it was an insult of Gujarat and its people.
