Dasburma Is A Small Fish In Chit Fund Scam: Pyari

BHUBANESWAR: Odisha Jan Morcha (OJM) president and Rajya Sabha MP Pyari Mohan Mohapatra on Saturday joined the bandwagon of leaders, who took a dig at minister Sanjay Dasburma for his alleged involvement in the chit fund scam.  

Reacting over the summon issued by CBI to Dasburma for allegedly availing a car from AT Group, Mohapatra said “if Sanjay’s name has popped up; he is a small fish. There are much more big fishes in the ocean of chit fund scam”.

However, he didn’t specify who these big fishes he is referring to.

Notably, Pyari Mohapatra was earlier quizzed by CBI for his alleged involvement in the chit fund scam while the central investigating agency also raided his house.

However, BJD spokesperson Amar Satpathy reacted to Pyari Mohan’s statement and said, “He should make clear who is he referring to as big fish? Nobody is big or small in an investigation”.
