"Modi, this is a criminal attack on Amit Shah!" - Kong. Rahul is angry that the campaign will be affected by the freeze in funds New Delhi: Highlighting the financial problem faced by the Congress party due to the freezing of bank accounts, Rahul Gandhi has said that because all the bank accounts of the party have been frozen, it has not been able to carry out any campaign before the Lok Sabha elections. In a very rare event at the Congress Party headquarters in Delhi, former Congress President Sonia Gandhi, current President Mallikarjuna Kharge, Wayanad MP. Leaders including Rahul Gandhi met the press together. Speaking at that time, Rahul Gandhi said, "This is not a freezing of the Congress party's bank account. It is a freezing of Indian democracy. As the largest opposition party we could not take any action. We are unable to provide any advertising. We could not send our leaders anywhere. This is an attack on democracy.
The move to freeze the bank accounts of the Congress party has been taken two months before the election campaign. One notice was from the 1990s and the other was from accounts dating back six or seven years. The total amount claimed to be due is Rs.14 lakhs. But as punishment our entire funds are frozen. The Election Commission has not said anything yet.
The state of contesting the elections has already been affected. We lost a month. This is a criminal attack on the Congress. Prime Minister Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah have also committed this criminal attack on us. There is no democracy in India today. The idea that India is a democracy has been falsified. The idea that India is the world's largest democracy has also been disproved.
We have 20 percent votes in the country, but we could not pay even 2 rupees for any election expenses. They are planning to disable us in the elections. "Our bank accounts have been frozen and Indian democracy has suffered enormous damage," Rahul Gandhi said.
Speaking to the media during this meeting, Sonia Gandhi said, “What we are talking about now is very serious. It will not only affect the Indian National Congress but also the country's democracy. "Planned efforts are being made by PM Modi to cripple the Congress party financially," he said.
Income Tax Department Notice: The Income Tax Department has frozen 4 bank accounts of the Congress party for filing the accounts for the financial year 2018-19 45 days late and imposed a penalty of Rs.210 crores.
Against the action of the Income Tax Department, the Congress Party appealed to the Income Tax Department and sought a stay on the action of the Income Tax Department. At that time, the party had said that it was unable to pay fees and salaries as the bank accounts were frozen. However, the Commission rejected the Congress' request.
Following this, the Congress party approached the Delhi High Court against the commission's order on March 8. It is noteworthy that the High Court refused to interfere with the order of the Tribunal.
