Congress MP Rahul Gandhi made startling claims on Thursday, stating that all bank accounts of the party have been frozen and that it cannot undertake any campaign ahead of the Lok Sabha elections.
“This is not freezing of Congress party's bank accounts, this is the freezing of Indian democracy,” Rahul Gandhi said. "As the biggest opposition party, we are unable to take any action - we can't book advertisements or send our leaders anywhere. This is an assault on democracy."
Gandhi announced this during a joint press conference with Sonia Gandhia and Mallikarjun Kharge, alleging that the action comes just two months ahead of the election campaign.
In February, the income tax department seized the party's four main bank accounts on an income tax demand of ₹210 crore for 2018-19. The assessing officer had raised a tax demand of more than ₹100 crore for the assessment year 2018-19 when the income was assessed to be more than ₹199 crore.
Last week, the high court refused to interfere with the order of the tribunal declining to stay a notice issued by the IT department to the Congress.
