The Congress on Monday raised questions about the Bank of Baroda withdrawing the auction notice for the Juhu bungalow of BJP MP Sunny Deol.
Taking to X (Previously Twitter), Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh wrote, "Yesterday afternoon the nation got to know that Bank of Baroda had put up the Juhu residence of BJP MP Sunny Deol for e-auction since he has not paid up Rs 56 crore owed to the Bank. This morning, in less than 24 hours, the nation has got to know that the Bank of Baroda has withdrawn the auction notice due to 'technical reasons'. Wonder who triggered these 'technical reasons'?" he said.
The bank, who had put up Gadar 2 actor’s Sunny Villa for sale over recovery of Rs 56 crore debt has now withdrawn the notice.
Sunny has been in default on a Rs 55.99 crore loan from the bank and interest and penalty, since December 2022, the state-owned lender said in a an advertisement on Sunday.
