Government Treasury has Suffered a Huge Loss by Not Collecting more than Rs. 130 crores of Lease Rent from Two Companies manufacturing Bromine in the Rann of Kutch, Archaean Chemical Industries and Agrocell Industries. On the other hand, Archaean Chemical Industries and Agrocell Industries have donated more than Rs. 10 crores to BJP.
The policy of “Give Donations & Get Business”, Give Funds to BJP and Get Government Benefits has been Exposed once again, Manish Doshi GPCC Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee’s Media Convener and Spokesperson is Seeking an answer to this
Doshi said that there are Numerous Industries Operating in the 400 km Coastline spread across Kutch that Produce Salt from Sea Water and other Chemical Products. Corruption Worth Crores of Rupees is often found in these Industries in Allotment of Government Land and the Amount to be Paid as Rent for the Agreed Period. CAG Comptroller and Accounts General which Monitors the Financial Transactions of Government, has shown that the Rent has not been Recovered by the Finance Department from two companies, Archaean Chemical Industries and Agrocell Industries, which Produce Chemicals from the Sea of Kutch, due to which the government has lost Rs. 130 crores.
For Archaean Chemical Industries, total of 50 Lakh Sq Meter of land at a rate of Rs. 155 Per Sq Meter. Jantri, which is estimated at Rs. 77.50 Crore and for Agrocell Industries, total of 80,000 Sq M of land at a rate of Rs. 65 Per Sq Meter. Jantri, which is Rs. 52 Crores, Total Recovery of Rs. 130.11 Crores from these Two companies should be Recovered as per the Land Allotment Share at an Annual Rent of 15%. The lands given for Obtaining Bromine and Marine Chemicals in the Rann of Kutch are supposed to be Recovered before the Renewal after the Expiry of the Term and all the Outstanding Amounts are supposed to be Recovered at the beginning of the year, but why is this amount not being recovered? BJP government should answer about this.
Out of the land given for Salt Agars, Solaris took possession of the Land for Processing at Market Price against Payment of the Occupancy Fee. In the same period, out of the 10,000 acres of Land acquired by Agrocell Industries, 8,000 Acres of Land was Reserved for Salt Agars and 2,000 Acres for Factories, Residences, and GuestHouses, for which Rent have not been Recovered, the CAG Report Indicates.
