Jay Shah case: Congress seeks Amit Shah’s resignation, independent probe

Jammu: All India Congress Committee spokesperson Ajay Kumar on Wednesday sought resignation of BJP national president Amit Shah and asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to hold an independent inquiry into latest controversy regarding the company of Jay Shah, son of Mr Shah. ''The countrymen want to know the truth on these allegations and Mr Modi should immediately seek the resignation of Mr Amit Shah from the post and hold an independent probe headed by two sitting judges of the Supreme court,’’ Dr Kumar here told mediapersons. 

He questioned that what was the business of the Temple Enterprises Private Limited which is the company of Amit Shah’s son Jay Shah besides the wife and daughter-in-law of Amit Shah, that during a period of over one year it enhanced its turnover 16,000 times? What were its properties, the number of employees and source of funding? 

''What was the reasons that the company which increased its turnover 16,000 times, was closed down in October 2016 by showing that it was incurring losses? Was it not the responsibility of IT department to look into this aspect under these circumstances when a common business man is questioned by IT department for his genuine deposits and financial transactions,’’ he questioned. (UNI)
