Lucknow: The Bhartiya Janata Party on Tuesday
demanded that Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister and BSP supremo Mayawati issue a white paper on her assets and those of her family members.
"Instead of misleading the people, Mayawati should issue
a white paper on her assets and those owned by her family
members," party spokesman Vijay Bahadur Pathak told reporters
here.
He said that the BSP supremo should give a point wise
reply on the allegations levelled by the BJP against her
brother Anand and his wife.
BJP had yesterday accused Anand Kumar, the brother of the
BSP Supremo, and his wife of parking money through ghost and
dummy companies at Noida.
"There are 26 companies linked with dubious transactions,
dealings and investment, of which seven closed down after
financial transactions of Anand Kumar," BJP National Secretary
Kirit Somaiya had alleged while releasing the list of
companies.
He had alleged that more than 100 such companies were
involved in the Noida scam.
Pathak said that Mayawati should tell the people about
her assets and those owned by her family members, including
brother and his wife.
"Allegations against Anand are of a serious a nature
and people need to know the reality," he said.
He said that the BSP was misleading the people by
terming these allegations as false and baseless and making
statements like "imported leaders".
The spokesman demanded that a thorough probe into the
matter.
Mayawati today hit out at the opposition parties for
targeting her government and the party and said such attacks
would only work to her advantage in the assembly elections due
next year.
