IT notice to Cong Patna office

Days ahead of the first phase of Bihar elections, a team of Income Tax officials  served a notice to the Congress headquarters in Patna on Thursday, after money was recovered from a vehicle parked outside the compound, ANI reported. Moreover, Rs 8.5 lakh was recovered from a person outside the office premises. He has been detained. Congress Bihar in-charge Shaktisinh Gohil, however, said no money was recovered from within the office compound. Hitting out at the ruling BJP-JD(U) combine, RJD said, “Income tax department has started raiding Opposition parties. Do you understand the meaning?? This is called accepting defeat.”
