Senior CPI(M) leader and Lok Sabha member from West Bengal Mohammad Salim has demanded an inquiry against the All India Trinamool Congress MP K.D. Singh for allegedly acquiring landed properties worth millions of rupees in the hill State. He also met Himachal Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh in this connection.
The CPI(M) Polit Bureau member said he had full faith in the office of the Chief Minister and hoped that Mr. Singh would inquire into the illegal land deals and misuse of public money that was used by the chit fund companies in buying the huge chunks of land of poor farmers here.
He said he has already written in details about the misdeeds of Alchemist Company of Mr. K.D. Singh to the Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley who in turn has sent the papers to the Enforcement Directorate, Central Board of Direct Taxation and the Government of Himachal Pradesh.
The Alchemist group has done land deals of more than Rs 1,000 crore in Himachal only, said the CPI-M leader while giving details of some of the properties in Kufri and Chopal near here.
Supporting the allegations, the CPI-M has supplied a large number of documents to the Chief Minister’s office and demanded a CBI inquiry .The party has also demanded that FIR under relevant sections of the CrPC and IPC should be registered against the companies involved in fake transactions in the hill State.
