Satpal Raijada lied in the election affidavit, misled the Election Commission and the public : Satpal Satti
MLA from Una Sadar Shri Satpal Singh Satti, while addressing a press conference at the BJP party office today, has made serious allegations against Chief Minister Sukhu and Congress candidate from Hamirpur Lok Sabha Satpal Raizada of misappropriation of money of the people of Himachal. He has also accused them of giving a false affidavit to the Election Commission.
Mr. Satpal Satti said, “The Congress government running in Himachal has fallen morally. Along with Chief Minister Sukhu, every Congress leader is involved in fraud. Congress candidate from Hamirpur Lok Sabha constituency Satpal Rajzada has a long history of doing unethical things. But due to the collusion of Sukhu and Raizada, a case of a big fraud of the hard earned money of the people has come to light. Sukhu along with his friend Satpal Rajzada
A loan of Rs 6 crores which was in Kangra Cooperative Bank has been made zero. Satpal Raijada’s loan of Rs 6,53,13,939 has been made zero from Kangra Bank’s Una branch number 00013. Satpal Raijada has got such a huge loan amount made zero without paying any money, this is not only a blatant mockery of public interest but also an incident that puts Kangra Bank’s financial condition at further risk.
Mr. Satpal Satti said, “According to the documents received, Satpal Raizada had stated in his affidavit for the 2022 assembly elections that he has a loan of Rs 5 crore 97 lakh. But this time in the affidavit given to the Election Commission in the Lok Sabha, he has shown that loan as nil, meaning this loan has disappeared. There is no mention of that loan anywhere. This morning I heard an interview of Rajzada in which he said that he repaid this old loan by selling his property and borrowing from friends. Anyone with even basic understanding knows that it is mandatory to give information in the affidavit that if the loan was repaid, then how it was repaid and its full details have to be given. Raizada has hidden this information in his affidavit. This is pointing towards some big corruption. Sukhu misused his position and waived off this loan of Raizada on 5 December 2023. After all, what kind of collusion was formed between Sukhu and Raizada that they defrauded Kangra Bank of Rs 6 crore. Sukhu is not able to pay our sisters and daughters Rs 1500 per month as per the guarantee given by him but is roaming around getting crores of rupees of loans of his friends waived off. This is a loan scam of Sukhu and Raijada in which both of them have been caught red handed.
Satti said, “According to the affidavit, Raizada’s property increased but in his statements his income decreased and the loan disappeared, how is this possible? Do the Chief Minister and Raizad think the public is fool? Why did Raizada lie? Why did Sukhu misuse his position? What was the compulsion that it was necessary to sink Kangra Bank? This is pointing towards a big corruption? The Chief Minister should also tell what personal benefit Sukhu had in this? Will Sukhu waive the loans of all Himachali brothers and sisters who took loans from Kangra Bank? Why was the hard-earned money of the innocent people of Himachal looted?
