AGARTALA / KOLKATA, Dec 28 (TIWN): Chit fund tainted political parties CPI-M, TMC exchanging blows over Chit Fund fundings and huge corruptions involving key political leaders. In Tripura, ruling CPI-M involved with Chit Fund scams involving key Ministers and leaders like Bijita Nath, Gautam Das whereas Bengal TMC Ministers like Transport Minister Madan Mitra, various TMC leaders had jail stints for corruptions with Chit Funds.Trinamool has again and again raised questions on why CBI inquiry is not being conducted in Tripura against chit fund cases involving CPI-M leaders. Whereas in West Bengal all the ruling party leaders are being chased for their intimacy with the chit fund groups, but in Tripura even-after the State CPI-M and Chief Minister’s direct involvement in patronizing Rose Valley, I-Core,Basil Intl Chit Fund companies, no CBI investigation was held.

On the other hand the work has been given to State Police driven SIT, which has failed to submit a single chargesheet properly in HC.  But CBI on Tuesday summoned Trinamool Congress MP Sudip Banerjee for questioning in relation to the Rose Valley Chit fund scam, an agency official said.

 "Trinamool MP Sudip Banerjee has been summoned by the CBI in relation to the Rose Valley chit fund case. He is asked to be present in the CBI office by December 30," said the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) official.

Trinamool's Lok Sabha leader was also summoned by the investigation agency earlier this month but he reportedly skipped the meeting, stating engagement in the ongoing parliamentary session. However, after this Tripura TMC new President Asish Saha has raised question why CBI is not interfering in Tripura Chit fund cases?

 “Tripura Chit fund groups with the shelter of CPI-M govt had spread its umbrella and everyone knows it. They managed the full cooperation of Tripura Govt. that time and even till day Govt is helping them with poor investigation status”, Saha said.

However, he further announced that Trinamool will conduct massive protests until the CBI inquiry is held here.

 ‘If at West Bengal political leaders can be arrested with CBI inquiry why in Tripura CBI is not showing interest?’ said Saha. ‘It’s true that at West Bengal TMC leaders have been arrested in chit fund scam and CPI-M is propagating that event till day, but what about that Golden history of Tripura Chief Minister becoming the ambassador of Rose Valley Chit fund group and sharing dais with the owners of Rose valley?’, Saha added.

Saha indicated that BJP and CPI-M are on mutual agreement and that’s why, no CBI inquiry has been done in Tripura.

It’s worthy to mention here that on Oct 10, Tripura BJP state president Biplab Deb had expressed extreme displeasure to the slow move of SIT against Chit Fund groups, which looted crores from Tripura people.“SIT working in favour of CPI-M, as Rajib Sing favoured earlier. BJP always was against Rajib Sing”, said Biplab Deb.

But presently no action is taking against Tripura’s massive chit fund frauds as SIT again fails to submit chargesheet on July 31st  at High Court.  All of the 70 chit fund cases lying dead under Manik Sarkar influenced State Police SIT.
