BJP MP Subramanian Swamy on Monday alleged that Karti Chidambaram, son of former Finance Minister P. Chidambaram has several undisclosed bank accounts abroad with huge cash deposits.
“Some outrageous claims have been made about me. My filings are up to date and completely in compliance with regulatory/statutory requirements,” Mr. Karti Chidambaram tweeted later in the day.
“My family’s and my assets are duly reflected in our I-T filings. My companies have made all declarations as required by statutory requirements.”
In a letter, Dr. Swamy asked for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s intervention in the matter, alleging inaction on the part of the Ministry of Finance, since several officials meant to deal with it were appointed by Mr. P. Chidambaram and were allegedly protecting the father and son.
“There are 21 bank accounts opened by Karti Chidambaram abroad,” Dr. Swamy said.
On Twitter, Mr. Karti Chidambaram responded to the charges, saying some outrageous claims have been made about him and his filings are up to date and completely in compliance with regulatory/statutory requirements.
