[IAC++] Govt goes soft on Kiran Bedi and Manish Sisodia NGO corruption

Dear IAC members

IAC National Executive Committee condemns the soft action of the Union Home Ministry to condone financial irregularity of expelled IAC workers.

In a shocking move that shows the close links between the UPA Government and IAC's expelled workers like Kiran Bedi and Manish Sisodia, the Home Ministry has submitted a "soft" affidavit on their financial irregularities to the the Delhi High Court, which lets them off the FCRA hook (for now) despite finding irregular utilisation of funds

Kiran Bedi  was running 15 bank accounts and Manish Sisodia was using foreign funds for his personal benefit.

Some of the admissions

"The Centre today told the Delhi High Court that some NGOs affiliated to anti-graft activist Anna Hazare's team had received foreign funds, which were utilised irregularly"

"during inspection of Kabir's account in August, some vouchers were not supported with bills and some bills for repairing personal vehicles were claimed from the association's accounts."

" cash was disbursed to many persons without justification or record, most of the foreign contribution has been spent on tours and travel without approval of trustee and Sisodia has been getting salary for discharging his duties, said the affidavit adding that Kabir's present office runs from residential flat of Sisodia's wife."

"The government said during inspection of India Vision Foundation's (Kiran Bedi's) accounts in November, it was found that the organisation maintained 15 bank accounts including FCRA designated bank account and it frequently withdrew foreign contribution."
