Aam Aadmi Party Lokpal exonerates Mayank Gandhi
B. Ramani, (India News Political Bureau), New Delhi, Saturday 15 June 2013, 01:13 AM (IST)
Aam Aadmi Party's Internal Lokpal (ombudsman) today exonerated party founding member Mayank Gandhi of corruption charges leveled against him. The party's Lokpal consisting of Admiral L Ramdas and Illina Sen found no force in the complaints made by the unnamed complainant.
Mayank Gandhi was "exonerated" of the following charges
- Following the house collapses in Chira Bazar, a plan for cluster re-development was envisaged by Lok Group with its co-founder ,Shri Lalit Gandhi . To further this goal, he formed a NGO Remaking of Mumbai Federation( ROMF ) with his nephew Shri Mayank Gandhi as the paid Secretary.
- This NGO claimed among its Patrons, lumineries like Justice P N Bhagwati, Sri SriRavishankar, ShriNarayanamurthy( of Infosys fame), Deepak Parekh and others.
- With the strength of these well known names, the NGO conducted various meetings in the Chira Bazar-Kalbadevi area and collected letters of consent in plain paper from the Tenants and Shop Keepers while totally ignoring the Land Lords and other Stake Holders.
- On the strength of the purported letters and the Project report prepared by the Shri Mayank Gandhi led NGO, Lok Group approached the Government for permission for Cluster Redevelopment.It also formed a joint venture company with Unity Developers ( a well known Builder known for close contacts with the Thackeray Family ). Surprisingly, the commercial Venture bore the same name as the NGO, viz Remaking of Mumbai Housing Infrastructure and Finance Limited ( ROMHIF )
- Shri Mayank Gandhi was also incidentally a Director of the promoter company of the Lok Group.
- The Project Report prepared by the NGO ROMF was sold to the Commercial Venture ROMHIF
- By allowing a commercial exploitation of the work done by the NGO, Shri Mayank Gandhi has misused the trust placed on him by the hundreds of Residents of the Chira Bazar Kalbadevi area.
Reacting to this "exoneration", Sarbajit Roy- National Convenor of the India Against Corruption andolan, which party Gandhi was previously associated with, blogged his earthy disapproval.
It has taken 9 months for AAP to clear Mayank Gandhi of corruption charges leveled against him by Viren Shah and others. The baby they delivered is still-born. 8 of those 9 months were spent in desperately searching for 2 persons (in the whole of India) who would exonerate Mayank against the specific charges made against him with reams of evidence. The 2 "scamps" Admiral Ramdas (Retd CoNS) and Illina Sen (wife of Binayak Sen) who let Gandhi off are so excessively close to Aam Aadmi Party co-founder Prashant Bhushan that even the world's thinnest condom would not pass between them.
