While People of India were suffering in queues, Scamsters converted ‘Black’ to ‘White’ PM choreographed the DeMo, leaving out window for Black Money Hoarders to benefit 19 months post ‘Modi Made Disaster’ of Demonetisation, it is now officially clear that this entire exercise was the Biggest Scam in Independent India, indulged to convert its ill-gotten ‘Black Money’ into ‘White’! An RTI Reply dated May 7, 2018 (Please See Annexure A1) has shockingly revealed that Ahmedabad District Cooperative Bank (ADCB), whose directors include BJP’s National President, Shri Amit Shah (who is also its past chairman) and his close associates received, the highest amount of old demonetized notes i.e. a whopping ₹745.58 Cr in just 5 days between 10.11.2016 to 14.11.2016. (Please See Annexure A2) Ahmedabad District Cooperative Bank is the only district Co-operative Bank out of 370 district co-operative banks across the country to receive such a large sum of demonetised notes in 5 days. Its Chairman Shri Ajay Patel is a prominent BJP leader a close associate of Shri Amit Shah. Shri Amit Shah’s close associate, Shri Yashpal Chudasama, whose name appears in the infamous ‘Jay Shah-Zyada’ Case is also a director of the ADCB. It is important to underline the fact that all the district cooperative banks were banned from accepting deposits of the banned currency notes from the public after November 14, 2016, -- five days after demonetisation -- on the pretext that ‘Black Money’ would be laundered through this route. But in the case of ADCB of which BJP President is a director, it was already ‘transferred’! Right behind ADCB and on the number #2 position is the Rajkot District Cooperative Bank, which received old notes worth a whopping ₹693.19 Cr. Its chairman Shri Jayeshbhai Vitthalbhai Radadiya is a Cabinet Minister in BJP’s Gujarat Govt. Another director is Shri Vitthalbhai Radadiya, father of Jayeshbhai.

The RTI also reveals the important national picture, which further establishes that the entire exercise of Demonetisation was meant to benefit a select group of BJP cronies (Please See Annexure A3). States ruled by BJP and its allies/supporters got the largest proportion of deposits in the district Co-Operative Banks i.e ₹ 14293.71Cr out of ₹22270.80 Cr (64.18%), compared to non-BJP ruled states at the time of Demonetisation. Let Shri Amit Shah/BJP/RSS publically disclose to the Nation, properties and their value purchased in the run up to and post Demonetisation till date, including source of funds. Certain issues stand out and have never been answered:- (i) In the run-up to decision of demonetisation, BJP and RSS purchased properties running into hundreds of crores across the country. Congress had released details of 8 properties valuing Rs.3.41 crore in Bihar and 18 properties in Odisha. Actual market value of these properties is much higher. Despite this, Shri Narendra Modi and Shri Amit Shah have refused to make public the details of properties purchased by BJP/RSS in the last 19 months. Does it not prove that BJP had advance knowledge of the decision of demonetisation and was converting its money into assets immediately before demonetisation? (ii) Mahesh Shah of Ahmedabad, Gujarat made a declaration of Rs.13,860 crore in the voluntary income disclosure scheme. He later resiles. As he was giving a TV interview disclosing names of politicians and bureaucrats, he was taken away by Income Tax authorities. Former Gujarat CM, Shri Sureshbhai Mehta has openly spoken about links of Mahesh Shah with Shri Narendra Modi and Shri Amit Shah. Why have they not been investigated? (iii) In September, 2016; bank deposits in scheduled banks saw an additional increase of Rs.5,88,600 lakh crore. Out of this, fixed deposits made between Ist September to 15th September, 2016 alone were over Rs.3 lakh crore. Does it not prove advance knowledge of the decision of demonetisation and conversion of money? Modi government has not been unable to explain it nor has made public names of everyone, who had deposited Rs.25 lakh or more. (iv) Kolkata Unit of BJP was caught depositing Rs.500/Rs.1000 notes running into Rs.3 crore on the day of demonetisation in A/c No. 554510034. Despite repeated demands, BJP and RSS have not made public details of money deposited between Ist March, 2016 and 8th November, 2016 in its bank accounts across the country. (v) Shockingly and just before demonetization on 08-09-2016, cash of Rs.3 crore was seized from a Maruti Swift Car bearing Regn. No. HR-26AR-9662 at Indira Puram, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. The two occupants of the car, Sidharth Shukla and Anoop Aggarwal claimed that the money belonged to them and they were taking it to Lucknow. Ghaziabad City BJP President, Ashok Monga reached the Police Station and certified on a letter pad that the money was being ‘sent by BJP Central Office to BJP State Office in Lucknow’ (vi) Ramesh Gowda, an associate of Karnataka BJP leader & former Minister, G. Janardan Reddy, committed suicide and left behind a suicide note stating conversion of Rs.100 crore of black money by the BJP leader. Time for PM Modi & Shri Amit Shah to answer. Even Media censored and illegally forced to remove the stories.
