New Delhi: Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Friday asked Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman to release the full data on donations under the now- scrapped Electoral Bonds scheme, a day after Election Commission posted the entire list of donors who purchased electoral bonds and political parties who had encashed them.
Taking to the social media platform X, Ramesh said, "The Finance Minister says that the link between the ED/CBI/IT raids on firms and their subsequent donations to the BJP are based on assumptions."
"If these assumptions are untrue, then we invite her to release the full data of who donated how much to which political party. It will put an end to the discussion once and for all," he added.
"It must be remembered that the Finance Minister is in charge of both the State Bank of India, which administers the #ElectoralBondScam, and the Enforcement Directorate, which enforces the Pradhan Mantri Hafta Vasuli Yojana," the Congress leader said in a statement on X.
Earlier today, the Union Finance Minister while participating in a media conclave dismissed as mere assumptions suggestions of links between raids by central agencies and electoral bonds. (with ANI inputs)
