Opposition parties to corner Govt over black money issue

New Delhi, Nov 25 (IBNS): The Opposition parties are likely to show a united front in Parliament on Tuesday to corner the ruling Nharatiya janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) on the issue of black money, media reports said.

According to sources, the Trinamool Congress and the Janata Dal-United (JD-U) already gave a notice for the suspension of the Question Hour in Rajya Sabha to discuss the black money issue.

Trinamool chief Mamata Banerjee had already warned that her Parliamentarians would take on the government over the repatriation of black money. “Where is black money? You bring back the black money first that is stashed in foreign banks,” Banerjee told a rally on Monday in Kolkata.

West Bengal’s ruling Trinamool Congress and the BJP are already at loggerhead over the issue of multi-crore Saradha chitfund scam that got busted in April last year and the subsequent Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the issue.

The federal investigation agency sleuths already arrested two Trinamool Congress Rajya Sabha members, Srinjoy Bose and Kunal Ghosh, and former state police top cop who was also a senior Trinamool Congress leader Rajat Majumder in connection with the ponzi meltdown.
