New Delhi, Jun 29: The credibility of senior BJP leader Subramanian Swamy, who is considered as one of the most controversial politicians in India, is once again at stake as his allegation against two prominent figures of opposition also proved to be false.

priyanka-karti-subbuPriyanka Gandhi and Karti Chidambaram have only one Director Identification Number (DIN) issued to them, Corporate Affairs Ministry has said contradicting the vociferous claim of senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Subramanian Swamy that they possessed multiple numbers.

The Ministry has also said that other DIN applications (online) made by them had "lapsed" or were "rejected" and not allotted to them. "Priyanka Gandhi, wife of Robert Vadra, is holding only one DIN allotted by Ministry. The DIN application was made online and processed by the DIN cell assisted by service provider company under MCA21.

"The valid DIN number... was allotted on her application dated January 10, 2007," Pankaj Srivastava, Assistant Central Public Information Officer, Office of Regional Director, NR, Noida said in an RTI response dated June 17, 2014 to Bhilwara- based RTI activist SS Ranawat.

"No penalty order was passed by this Directorate as the power to impose is vested with Courts under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956," the reply said in response to a question seeking a copy of any penalty orders imposed on her.

The issue was raised by Subramanian Swamy who had filed complaints against Priyanka Vadra and Karti Chidambaram with the Ministry alleging that the two had multiple DINs, which is not permissible under the Companies Law.

Karti Chidambaram is the son of former Finance Minister P Chidambaram.

In the case of Karti also, the Ministry said in its response that he is "holding only one DIN allotted by the Ministry. The DIN application was made online and processed by the DIN cell assisted by service provider company under MCA21."

"However, the DIN documents and related information are in the nature of personal information and the disclosure of which has no relationship to any public activity or interest or which would cause unwarranted invasion of the privacy of the individuals as prescribed under section 8(1)(j) of the Right to Information Act," it said.

This news is totally fake. In fact both the persons have DI number more than one. I have sufficient documentary evidences, which PTI ignored for the reasons best known to them.

Bengaluru, July 28: Former prime minister and JD(S) chief H D Deve Gowda today threatened to launch a state-wide agitation in against the amendments made to the Karnataka Land Reforms Act.

Gowda’s opposition to the new law comes even as Congress leader Siddaramaiah is also doggedly pursuing it.

Demanding that the state government immediately rollback the ordinance empowering these amendments, the octogenarian leader said he personally would take to streets if the government failed to budge.

The B S Yediyurappa government has liberalised the land reforms law by removing restrictions on non-agriculturists from purchasing and owning farm lands.

The government has also amended the APMC Act and has tweaked labour laws, which are all “against the interest of the state and must be rolled back,” Gowda said.

Speaking to reporters here, Gowda stated that he had already written thrice to Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa in this regard. "The ordinances have to be taken back. The amendments to Karnataka Land Reforms Act, by repealing sections 79-A, B and C, is an anti-farmer move. The APMC Act amendment, too, is against the interest of the state. The government has failed to speak about the impact of these amendments," said Gowda, who is now a Rajya Sabha member.

Elaborating on the amendment to the Land Reform Act, the JD(S) patriarch opined that by throwing open agricultural land ownership to anybody at all, the government was only helping real estate developers while pushing farmers into a “vulnerable” situation.

Amidst all this, there are now reports of funds misappropriation in Covid-19 relief measures and in procurement of medical equipment, he said, adding that it seemed like only the corrupt became stronger over time.

Further, Gowda lambasted both national parties for creating political unrest, referring to the ongoing political crisis in Rajasthan and the recent developments in Madhya Pradesh. However, he added that he would not wish to dwell on it much, while emphasising that his focus was primarily on strengthening his own party at this point in time.

Bengaluru, Jan 2: The Congress leadership in Delhi is expected to start the process of selecting a new party chief for Karnataka next week. There are strong indications the race has narrowed to DK Shivakumar and MB Patil.

Party insiders said the leadership almost finalised Shivakumar’s name as the president of Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC), but the decision was put on hold after requests by some senior members.

“It’s not that we are against Shivakumar. We think the party should have a Lingayat at the helm since community strongman and chief minister BS Yediyurappa is at the fag end of his long political career. There’s an opportunity here for a Congressman to occupy that space,” said a senior Congress politician, who didn’t want to be named.

That’s where the candidacy of Patil, a Lingayat, scores high.

The party, however, doesn’t want to compromise on quality and wants an efficient KPCC president who can unite two rival factions within the party, one led by Siddaramaiah and another by former union minister KH Muniyappa.

The need to pick a new state president arose after Dinesh Gundurao resigned from the post last month, taking moral responsibility for Congress’s poor showing in the byelections. Siddaramaiah also stood down as Congress party legislature leader.

The insiders said the new KPCC chief could be announced after January 16. The party might also appoint two working presidents and a new legislature party leader, who will automatically become the opposition’s voice in the assembly.

For the latter position, the name of senior Dalit politician and former deputy chief minister G Parameshwara is doing the rounds. But the party, the sources said, could still ask Siddaramaiah to reconsider his decision and stay on.

Many Congress members had raised questions over his stewardship after the bypoll disappointment. They said on his watch, the party had also fared badly in the assembly and Lok Sabha elections, demanding that he be held accountable.

Siddaramaiah is expected to visit Delhi next week to discuss the leadership issue with party boss Sonia Gandhi. Some other senior Congress members, including BK Hariprasad, are also likely to meet her.
