Digvijay wrote PM to probe against Nitin Gadkari

New Delhi: Congress General Secretary Digvijay Singh has demanded a probe into allegations of dubious funding of companies run by BJP president Nitin Gadkari. He wrote a letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in this regard.

In his communication, Digvijay Singh urged the Prime Minister to ask the Ministry of Corporate Affairs to institute an inquiry by the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) into the matter, saying that, “a prima facie case does exist”.

The Party has so far been maintaining that there should not be any politics on the private business of individuals and unless some investigating agency stumbles upon any irregularity, there is no need for Congress to target the BJP chief.

Singh has also attached with the letter a report compiled from information taken from the official site of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and said that findings of a TV investigation as well as this report make “some very pertinent points that requires serious attention.”
