Chit Fund Scam: Rajat Choudhury Resigns As Youth Congress President

BHUBANESWAR: At a time Odisha Congress on Tuesday organised a massive rally demanding the resignation of minister Sanjay Dasburma for his alleged involvement in the chit fund scam, youth Congress president Rajat Choudhury has tendered his resignation after CBI interrogated him in the chit fund scam.

Senior Congress leader Lalatendu Bidyadhar (Lulu) Mohapatra informed that Rajat has resigned from youth Congress president post after he was interrogated by CBI.

The CBI questioned Rajat for the second consecutive day on Tuesday for his alleged involvement with Artha Tatwa Group, a chit fund company.

He was also interrogated last year.

Rajat put in his paper a day after Pradesh Congress Committee president Prasad Harichandan said that the party would not spare anyone involved in the chit fund scam.
