Amarinder Singh slams Jaitley after Income Tax Dept. files complaint
New Delhi [India], Dec. 2 (ANI): Former Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh on Friday lashed out at Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, after the Income Tax Department filed a prosecution complaint against him in a foreign tax evasion case. "I challenged @arunjaitley to fight by-elections in Amritsar and this is how he responds. So predictable!", Singh tweeted. Earlier in June, the Enforcement Directorate issued summons to Amarinder's son Raninder Singh for allegedly violating the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA). Dubbing the summons as "fraud notice", Amarinder had alleged that Jaitley was behind it. "This is total fraud notice. This issue of income tax and all has been done by Jaitley, he can't get over his defeat," Amarinder told ANI. Amarinder, who will lead the Punjab Congress in the upcoming assembly elections eyeing the Chief Minister seat, recently resigned from his Lok Sabha membership in protest against the Supreme Court order on the Sutlej Yamuna Link canal issue.
