New Delhi: The Income Tax Department has given another blow to the Congress, which has faced tax recovery notices worth crores of rupees in the case of unaccounted transactions. Claiming tax irregularities, the Income Tax Department has imposed a fine of Rs 10 crore on the party. A notice of Rs 1800 crore has been issued. This notice has created a difficult situation for Congress before the Lok Sabha elections. This notice has been sent for assessment years 2017-18 and 2020-21. The Congress on Friday claimed to have received the notice alleging that the BJP has violated income tax laws and that the IT department should demand more than Rs 4,600 crore from the saffron party. The Congress had called for nationwide protests against the BJP over the weekend, accusing the opposition of tax terrorism.
At the AICC headquarters, Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh, party treasurer Ajay Maken alleged that the BJP has violated IT laws and as per our estimates the IT department has charged them Rs. A demand of Rs 4,617.58 crore should be made. Instead, the Income Tax Department is visible only to the opposition including Congress. The IT department is harassing our party. He gave us money. A fine of Rs 1,823.08 crore has been asked to be paid.
Ajay Maken said that BJP is committing tax terrorism and attacking Congress during the Lok Sabha elections. There are two aspects to his actions. First IT matters are not equal by any means. Heavy fine is being imposed on Congress while the IT department is silent on BJP. Second, the BJP wants to destroy the main opposition economically.
Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh alleged that BJP has raised crores of rupees through the electoral bond scam. Rs 8,200 crore and 'pre-paid, post-paid, post-paid bribes and shell companies' were used to raise these funds. BJP wants to cripple Congress economically, but we will not bow down. The campaign of Congress will continue in the next elections also and we guarantee this to the countrymen. We will contest elections more aggressively.
Maken said that Congress and other opposition parties agreeing with its ideology are being targeted by the IT department. The Supreme Court will soon hear the demands of the IT department. The IT department took the illegal step of freezing the bank accounts of the main opposition in February, a month before the Lok Sabha elections. Eight years of IT returns filed by Congress have been reopened on the basis of baseless and fabricated criteria and IT notices worth crores of rupees have been issued.
He said how the final election donation should be given to political parties under Section 29-C of the Representation of the People Act. We have analyzed the last seven years, especially the year 2017-18, which shows that the BJP has spent Rs. Donated Rs 42 crores, but they don't even know the addresses of those who donated. This year we owe Rs. As against Rs 14 lakh. A fine of Rs 135 crore has been imposed. The IT department has deposited the money in our bank accounts. By freezing Rs 270 crore. Rs 135 crore has been recovered. Rupee. We have been accused of tax evasion of Rs 14 lakh. A fine of Rs 135 crore has been imposed while a fine of Rs 135 crore has been imposed on BJP. 42 crores have been found but no details have been given.
Ajay Maken said, you know that Rs. How much is 1800 crores? This is Rs. 1800 not Rs. 1800 crores. The total expenditure of our party in 2019 Lok Sabha elections was Rs. 800 crores, then Rs. How can a demand of Rs 1800 crore be made? If the same criteria on which the IT department fined Congress is applied to BJP on the basis of last seven years, it will get Rs 200 crore. A fine of Rs 4600 crore should be imposed, but it is being ignored. Maken further said that, we have gone to the Supreme Court thrice. We will file a PIL in the court, so that BJP gets crores of rupees. Rs 4600 crore can be recovered, which the IT department is ignoring.
The face of IT department before Lok Sabha elections…

– IT department sent 11 notices in the last 72 hours: Claim of Trinamool leader Saket Gokhale
At a time when political parties across the country are gearing up to contest the Lok Sabha elections, the IT department has called for action on the Communist Party of India (CPI) after the Congress. The IT department has issued a notice to CPI to pay Rs 11 crore. On the other hand, IT has sent 11 notices to Trinamool Congress in the last 72 hours. In such a situation, BJP is putting all kinds of pressure on the opposition before the Lok Sabha elections.
The Income Tax Department has fined the Communist Party of India for using old PAN cards while filing tax returns for the past few years. He has been asked to pay Rs 11 crore. Sources said on Friday that the Left parties have approached their lawyers to challenge the tax authority's notice. Sources said the authority issued the outstanding notice along with penalty and interest for 'irregularities' in the use of the old PAN card by the party. “We will seek legal help and consult our lawyers,” a senior CPI leader said.
Meanwhile, Trinamool Congress MP Sanket Gokhale on Friday said that he has received 11 notices from the Income Tax Department in the last 72 hours. In such a situation, BJP is making every effort to suppress the opposition before the Lok Sabha elections. Gokhale wrote in a post on X that it is interesting that now the Modi government does not even want to pretend that this election is free and fair. They are making every effort to put pressure on the opposition before the Lok Sabha elections. Use IT department when ED is not working. Why is BJP so scared? Is Modi losing? The Trinamool leader also posted a screenshot of the notice e-mail received from the IT department on the social media site.
