Notes waved in LS were withdrawn from Indore, Bhopal: Paswan

Ajmer, Jul 26 (UNI) Minister for Chemicals&Fertilisers and Steel and Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) president Ramvilas Paswan today said the wads of currency displayed by three BJP MPs in the Lok Sabha during the trust motion on July 22, were withdrawn from banks in Bhopal and Indore.

Talking to reporters here, Mr Paswan said initial clues had suggested that the cash allegedly received by the BJP MPs was withdrawn from a bank branch in Bhopal and Indore.

He said the entire episode needed comprehensive probe into all aspects, including lapses in security at Parliament which had enabled the MPs to carry currency into the House.

Doubting the BJP MPs intentions, he said presence of the Chief Ministers of three BJP-ruled states outside Parliament also seemed to be mysterious.

Mr Paswan said offering bribe was crime but accepting the same was equally an offense.

Expressing satisfaction over the UPA Government's win in the trust vote, the Union Minister said 90 per cent of the youths in the country did favour the Indo-US nuclear deal as they understood the importance of the same.
