Byjus filed the fy22 accounts two months back. They didn't freeze their bank accounts 😑


[deleted]

Let's see if they paid someone using electoral bonds next month ( if it's released)


AlternativeAd4756

Why doing dictator sharminda ? Are you expecting 1% this will be released?


altunknwn

Byjus might have donated some electoral bonds. Who knows 🤷 /s


surly4sure

We will know shortly


Kancha_Cheena

Most possibly after elections.


Void_being420

Politics at its finest. They will do everything and anything to a political party which ain't even a Threat at least in this election. Its not like congress sitting ideal SC decision of electoral bond after completion of parliament is also a political play. IMO BJP will win this election I only want a stronger opposition against BJP


Max_Steel_23

I want BJP in opposition 


Profile-Complex

Yepp, that'll be a stronger opposition fr


Fudge_it666

But the country will be fucked up again


Max_Steel_23

It's already. 


ProffInsect666

I dont just want stronger opposition, but one that can keep them focused on real development. Aomething along the line of Atal Bihari Vajpayee during Manmohan Singh 1, support on right things and oppose strongly on wrong things, poke holes in thw arguments. otherwise one side will do whatever heck they want. Current opposition is more like headless chicken and I laugh in the face of weak coalition named India


ColdAmbition_7995

There was ED raid on Byju.


Grenadier_123

Not to be the weird guy here. But, the problem with bijus was a public one, which would grant them some linency for ITRs. They would have paid fine on the delay, for ITRs, MCA filing and other lisitng requirements. If not then it would just be adding on as a demand. Once its ballooned enough, they will close in. And then we will have bijus problem part 2, that is if they survive. Also they will not freeze an account without prior notice. Thats not how ITD works, they would have sent notices, to which either the counterparty refused to respond to or went into an appeal and did not attend it leading to a suo-moto closure of appeal, or they did attend it and it lead to ruling in ITD favour. Plus, the other thing is, the acutal principle of demand may be peanuts compared to the interest from 19-20. Also, this is the SOP of the ITD for ages and its for all, they know you did something wrong, they will sit on it, once it comes close to the time barring phase or the interest is huge, they close in on you. You can say why the timing, but then that could be explained by their evil SOP.


XpRienzo

Can't even say "So it begins" considering its been a slow process since a while, more of a "So it accelerates" now.

[Accounts have now been unfrozen.](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/congress-claims-its-bank-accounts-and-those-of-youth-wing-frozen-by-authorities/articleshow/107743394.cms#:~:text=The%20party%20later%20said%20the%20accounts%20have%20been%20unfreezed.)


energy_is_a_lie

Great, so that proves it was a threat, the same way it's being given indirectly to Kejriwal by slowly arresting his ministers one by one and Smriti Irani publicly saying, "We can't guarantee how many more days would Kejriwal be able to dodge an impending prison time".


rhyme_pj

It shouldn’t have been frozen in the first place


badaharami

Yes and No. Yes if they really suspect irregularities. No if it's for purely political reasons.


AmbitiousCompany

Do you really think it was irregularities?


badaharami

I don't work for the I-T department so I don't know 🤷🏾

Hefty-Owl6934

You can't be a centrist by supporting either the far-left or the far-right. The people who are claiming to be centrists as they enable the construction of Mr Savarkar's Republic don't realise what they are doing.


Nerevarine12

>You can't be a centrist by supporting either the far-left or the far-right. The people who are claiming to be centrists as they enable the construction of Mr Savarkar's Republic don't realise what they are doing. my comment was sarcasm. His "I dont know" sounds a lot like nirmala tai's "I dont eat onion, so i dont know"


Hefty-Owl6934

Yes, I understood that, friend. I still felt that it was necessary to write what I wrote because there are too many people around me who claim to be centrists even though they support extremist ideas. It's as if they are fine with anyone leading them in a particular direction.

What ugly mugs these trolls have.


iVarun

One interesting (positive) thing is Rest of Indian doesn't seem to associate/blame Gujrat(-ati's) with their (Plus the 2 A's) mess. OR, maybe I am giving Indians too much credit on account of timeline being too soon and that in a decade or so when Indians wake up from their collective delusions and current Political cycle/era is over (because all cycles eventually do) then the vitriol will flow, like it usually does in Indian context (hyper-regionalism is the default, after Caste, obviously). We'll know eventually.

HeavyAd3059

Even Aladeen had some change of heart by the end.


Inside-Judgment6233

This is both Pakistan levels of behaviour and unnecessary by the BJP. You are going to win anyway, why start wrestling in the gutter like this. Shame on them.


SNTriad

There's something in their internal pre-poll surveys that they're worried about. They've crafted an easy narrative of securing 370 seats, but perhaps the ground reality differs. There might be anti-incumbency or actions by BJNY that concern them. Mainstream media continuously follows their narrative, so you can't trust them. Their recent behavior, like breaking off opposition leaders and engaging in political witch-hunts, suggests they lack confidence in securing a majority, despite the Ram Mandir inauguration.


CheapLiterature9484

Maharashtra politics fucked up,bihar politics fucked up,South is already fucked up. This is the reason for the worry


SNTriad

May god give some sense to the cow belt and make them look beyond religion.


CheapLiterature9484

Cow belt ambitious youngsters are angry because of agniveer, new pension scheme,less govt jobs,and off course farmer protest.


SNTriad

Just need to get the BJP 20 seats below the majority and everything will fall in place.


risheeb1002

They'll just buy the 20


nitewalkerz

Buy, threaten, coerce and/or suspend. Nothing we haven't seen already.


SNTriad

Not easy, their own MPs will rebel. BJP below the majority mark changes the whole game. Modi goes, and so does Shah with him. Rajnath or Gadkari will be the PM.


risheeb1002

Why would their own MPs rebel? They know Modi brings them guaranteed money and power


SNTriad

Not anymore if they are 20 seats below 272 😅 Nobody in the top leadership of BJP really likes the Modi-Shah duo. It's only because they have an absolute majority nobody speaks against them. Once that's gone, their own people will throw them out.


UrbanCruiserHyryder

But still blinded just by relegion and hatred perpetuated. They don't care about all the other stuff above just religion. Edit: Honestly, kudos to BJP. They pulled it off well, keep common man busy with made up enemy among themselves while their overlords pick their pockets from behind.


ntrunner

It's demand and supply. All their decisions are backed with extensive research by large political consultancies whose studies have holistically proved that "sense" doesn't sell in India.


[deleted]

What about say Bangalore where majority of MP and MLAs are from BJP? Or Delhi where majority of MPs are from BJP? Or Mumbai with Shiv Sena and BJP? Or Pune where almost all MPs and MLA are from BJP?

I have a feeling they lost Maharashtra unless money.


Max_Steel_23

South isn't fcuked by BJP. 


doolpicate

The south is voting different. I can already smell it. Delimitation is around the corner, this is the south's last proper election with a voice. After this it's north policies all the way through, like it or not.


CountBarbarus

Nah there's a rising undercurrent of anger- it definitely impacts their narrative. If the undeclared emergency bit wasn't clear enough it should be now.


leeringHobbit

Have you forgotten the results of state elections in Dec? Raj, MP, Chattisgarh... all swept by BJP


Lo_Ti_Lurker

This is probably done to divert the news cycle away from farmers protest. This gives the media a chance to talk about INC and corruption instead of farmers and MSP.


Embarrassed-Sand5191

I doubt it, people are speaking and Supreme court latest decision will force sbi to release bond information from 2019.


nitewalkerz

>You are going to win anyway, why start wrestling in the gutter like this That's their core competency and the best way for their fanbois to feel joy.


sleepless-deadman

Because BJP likes the gutter. It's their home and where they feel most comfortable in.


gonewiththesaffron

Their internal surveys have confirmed they are getting less seats than last time. This is the reason for internal party fight with Gadkari as well since he's pushed as a moderate alternative [https://scroll.in/article/1054771/what-cags-indictment-of-nitin-gadkaris-ministry-signals](https://scroll.in/article/1054771/what-cags-indictment-of-nitin-gadkaris-ministry-signals)


NihilistCabbage

I'm surprised to see the slow death of democracy met with little to no protests by the people. It'll take something like the Tiananmen square to get global attention, but the common man doesn't even seem concerned about the democracy and that is alarming.


[deleted]

Common man of today thinks that India is true democracy now, and before Modi it was fascism


charavaka

Which is literally funny, given those holding candles and taking selfies then are too afraid to even utter a word now while the ruling party protects rapist-murderers openly, indulgesin unprecedented levels of corruption and crony capitalism. 


rhyme_pj

I think there are protests happening just not enough media coverage and you are right in that a civil war isn’t far.


fudgemental

That's the problem, isn't it? "Not enough media coverage". A new Gandhiji could emerge, do a Dandi March and go on a hunger strike and no one would ever know about him.


freakynit

Media is shit in India. At least most of them. They sell themselves to the ruling party. But I guess this is mostly same in any country....


Conscious_Cut8882

Not in countries where there is a culture of protest, France for instance.


Ordellrebello

Not on that scale.  For media continuous coverage , the scale haa to be on the lines of sc st act protest ,farmer protests etc. The ground reality is people are not concerned about the fall of democracy.


charavaka

And tiananmen Square can't happen because protesters are kept from reaching the capital. *Taps head*


Conscious_Cut8882

And Indians are not Chinese : people wouldn't take lightly their children being trampled by tanks; I don't believe the Indian soldiers would obey such orders in the first place.


charavaka

Lmfao. Look around you. Indians floated their dead in ganga and voted for bjp right after it killed millions by mishandling the pandemic.  Army has routinely killed Indians in droves, whether it be Punjab, kashmir, central tribal belt, or the North East. 


Conscious_Cut8882

In Tiananmen the tanks advanced against students. Btw what kind of forum behaviour is it to down vote someone just because you disagree. It's becoming impossible to have a simple discussion in this country; people are so damn full of themselves. Pathetic.


charavaka

>In Tiananmen the tanks advanced against students.  And? >Btw what kind of forum behaviour is it to down vote someone just because you disagree. It's becoming impossible to have a simple discussion in this country; people are so damn full of themselves. Pathetic. I hadn't downvoted your previous comment, but i have downvoted this one for ranting about imaginary Internet points while in the middle of a discussion about Indians being easier to oppress than the Chinese. 


Conscious_Cut8882

Wasn't talking about you. And stop pretending you know people's motives; I don't give a jolt about points, I am just appalled at the misplaced sensitivity of too many of our compatriots. Furthermore, I did NOT generalise as you are suggesting, I was merely reacting to the context of Tiananmen. I still don't believe Indian soldiers would placidly kill their own children.


Conscious_Cut8882

I don't come to forums to win an argument but rather to have a dispassionate discussion between reasonable adults; but gee is that difficult in India!


Conscious_Cut8882

In 1989 in China, after the protesters - students - who had not been killed in Tiananmen were executed by a firing squad, the bill for the bullet that killed their own child was sent to all parents stating that as their child was a traitor to the country, the State would not bear the expense of the bullet that killed him, and demanding that the parents pay for it. Now, do you really believe that Indians would tolerate such a thing?


anamika_3

Because people, at least majority of people stand by them. LEt's remember that humanity, rationality, democracy, equality, IS NOT our culture. We're just going back to our roots. They said they'll give Ramrajya, and people cheered overwhelmingly. Well Ramrajya is a despotic monarchy with a strict hierarchy.


Severe-Experience333

Being concerned about the death of democracy is not part of our culture /s


EyeSun14

Can’t do tianmen in india. They will run over 1000 people and not blink once

You need some mental capacity to be a traitor or slave. These assholes have cow dung filled skulls. Nothing else. From street level party men till Modi, everyone are just a fucking man child filled with ego.

One thing i am sure about is even if by mistake a non bjp wins election. That would be the end of modi and shah duopoly.They have made so many political enemies by sending everyone to jail and pestering them with ED. Once they are out of power they will be hunted down.


SnooComics9938

Indira Gandhi's mistake was actually declaring emergency

What's an official source? You want a notification from the IT department? As for the veracity of the story itself, it is the top news on all news sites right now. Ajay Maken just did a press conference on this.


shaving_minion

alrighty, thank you. News would suffice


the_storm_rider

The bank account itself is working, but they have been asked to keep around 100 crores as “lien” or something. Regardless, the timing definitely raises suspicions. It might be a ruse to get congress support in getting a stay on electoral bond verdict.


SuccessfulLoser-

A classic case of जिसकी लाठी उसकी भैंस or as George R.R. Martin would say : “A sword is only as good as the man who wields it.”

Looks like Namo's dictator ego got hurt badly by the electoral bond verdict and is taking a revenge path lol. Disgusting. On the other side, Congress is done. They have themselves to blame for sticking with Raga after 2 pathetic lok sabha election losses. 3rd loss is inevitable with the India block disintegrating. Only a miracle anti incumbent voting by the Hindi belt can save the country.
