Former Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari and his nephew Deependra Koshyari have filed a Rs 100 crore defamation suit against an RTI activist and Saamana newspaper who made the accusations. The defamation suit was filed against RTI activist Anil Galgali, Saamana’s editor-in-chief, Uddhav Thackeray, editor Sanjay Raut, and publisher Vivek Kadam.
In fact, some people recently accused former Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari of misusing Rs. 15 crore from Anant Ambani in the name of his Uttarakhand school. An anonymous letter revealed that he took the money on behalf of his educational institution, but the nephew purchased land and built a resort. Following these allegations, Koshyari has filed a Rs 100 crore defamation claim against all of the people who made them, and plans are underway to file a criminal case.
In this notice issued by Bhagat Singh Koshyari and Deependra Koshyari, it is clearly stated that they have received no donations and that there is a conspiracy to defame them. Whereas the notice states that he runs Parvati Prema Jagati School, which is run by the All India Institute of Education and has been in operation for 40 years, it was given to him voluntarily, and the money must have come from the same account.
Koshyari has stated that none of his family members are associated with this institution, nor is anyone in the management.
Bhagat Singh Koshyari and Deependra Koshyari stated in the notice that there is no institute named Bhagat Singh Koshyari and that an attempt is being made to defame him.
