ED summons TMC treasurer over financial irregularities
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has called Subhasish Chakraborty, the treasurer of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) and a former Rajya Sabha MP, to discuss some money issues.
The ED thinks that around Rs 164 crore might have been put into the party's bank accounts in a wrong way.
Chakraborty is in charge of these accounts, which are now frozen.
The TMC is also going through a big fight inside the party, with some leaders saying they are the real leaders.
These leaders have even told the bank and the police about the money problems, which led to the ED freezing the accounts.
The ED is also looking into a company called Carewell, which the TMC rented planes and helicopters from, using a lot of party money.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has summoned TMC treasurer Subhasish Chakraborty over alleged financial irregularities worth Rs 164 crore.
Chakraborty is the 'signing authority' of three frozen bank accounts related to the TMC.
The ED has asked Chakraborty to appear at its office in Kolkata’s Salt Lake this week.
Chakraborty plans to discuss the developments with his party and seek more time from the ED.
The TMC is facing a political crisis with rebel leaders claiming to be the 'real' faction and staking claim to the party’s symbol and coffers.
