Congress demands probe into BJP MP's wife's ssset surge

New Delhi, Oct 16 (UNI) In a sharp attack on the BJP, Congress today demanded a full investigation into the "disproportionate" rise in assets of Nishikant Dubey's wife, Anamika Gautam. The party alleged that Gautam's wealth skyrocketed from Rs 50 lakhs in 2009 to a staggering Rs 31.32 crores in 2024, based on affidavits filed by Dubey over the years.Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate, speaking at a press conference, revealed the startling asset growth. "In 2009, Ms. Gautam's movable assets stood at Rs 50 lakhs with no immovable property. By 2014, movable assets had doubled to Rs 1.03 crore, and immovable assets appeared at Rs 5.53 crores," she said. "By 2019, the figures ballooned further—movable assets reached Rs 3.72 crores, immovable assets Rs 9.35 crores, totaling Rs 13.06 crores."
Shrinate raised serious doubts about the authenticity of loan claims totaling Rs 8 crores, including Rs 1.20 crore allegedly lent by Abhishek Jha, who has denied any such transaction. "There is no record or evidence supporting these loans," she pointed out.
Calling the case "an open and shut example of corruption," Shrinate said, "The assets held by Ms Dubey do not align with the declared income over these years. This demands a thorough probe and immediate clarification from the Dubey family."
