Congress-backed news channel in Kerala says its bank accounts frozen by tax authorities
PTI, Feb 17, 2024, 1:23 PM IST
) The management of Congress-backed Jaihind TV in Kerala on Saturday alleged that its bank accounts were frozen by the Centre, a day after the national party’s main bank accounts were frozen by the I-T department over an outstanding tax demand.
According to sources in the TV channel, the office of the Assistant Commissioner, Central GST and Central Excise in Thiruvananthapuram issued notices to two leading private banks, directing them to recover the amount due to the central government from the news channel’s parent company, Bharat Broadcasting Company, leading to the freeze of its accounts.
Jaihind TV was recently in the news after the CBI issued a notice seeking details of the investments made in the channel by Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar in connection with a disproportionate assets case against the Congress leader.
