The Indian National Congress (INC) has accused the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) of being involved in a "mega Bitcoin scam" worth anything between Rs. 5,000 crore and Rs. 88,000 crore.
Congress spokesperson Shaktisinh Gohil alleged that BJP's state division in Gujarat converted black money to the cryptocurrency through hawala transactions, which is a method of transferring money without any money actually moving.
Congress demands a Supreme Court-monitored judicial probe
Gohil said, "BJP is scrambling for answers to explain how Ahmedabad District Cooperative Bank, whose director is BJP chief Amit Shah, received old currency worth ~745.58 crore in just five days and how ~3118.51 crore was deposited in 11 district co-operative banks linked with BJP leaders in Gujarat itself."
"We demand an impartial Supreme Court-monitored judicial investigation," he added.
