Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi highlighted the AIMIM’s absence from the electoral bond recipient list on Friday as political parties hurled accusations. Members of the Opposition have demanded a high-level Supreme Court probe against the ruling BJP after data released by the Election Commission revealed that it had secured more than ₹6060 crore.
“Be it BJP, TMC, Congress, BRS, DMK, BJD, Samajwadi Party, YSRCP, Shiv Sena or others, almost every political party got money in the form of electoral bonds; BJP alone got more than ₹6,000 crore. Our party AIMIM didn’t raise a single penny, but they all call Asaduddin Owaisi as BJP’s B-team.” the senior politician said.
