Gujarat CM Anadiben Patel's daughter under scanner for alleged land deal


Ahmedabad, Feb 6 (Agencies) : In what could dent the image of the Bharatiya Janata Party in Gujarat, a report on Friday put a spotlight on Anar Jayesh Patel, the daughter of Chief Minister Anandiben Patel, over an alleged land deal.

According to The Economic Times, a company run by business associates of Anar, the daughter of Chief Minister Anandiben Patel, owns 400 acres – 250 acres of which was allotted to the company at an official rate of Rs 15 per square metre – of land in Amreli district, next to the lion sanctuary at Gir.

Documents with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) show various transactions between Anar and the promoters of Wildwoods Resorts and Realties in 2010-11 when the Gujarat government allotted 250 acres of public land in 2010-11 to Wildwoods.

Moreover, the government not only permitted Wildwoods to buy a further 172 acres of agricultural land but also let land use from agricultural to non-agricultural.

The daughter of the Gujarat Chief Minister has co founded Gramshree and Manav Sadhna, NGOs that works for artisans and women.

The current promoters of Wildwoods - Dakshesh Shah and Amol Shripal Sheth - are business partners of Anar Patel.

According to The Hindu, Anandiben is facing flak over her children’s alleged interference in governance.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has reportedly asked his successor and protégé to “dispel the perception” and “rectify her image”, the daily quoted a top source close to the Gujarat CM as saying.

Ever since the 73-year-old Anandiben Patel took over as the Gujarat Chief Minister in May 2014, an impression has gained ground that her two children - Anar and Shwetank (Sanjay) - wield influence in the government.

    Modi really got publicity by bribing gujarati Media and he was always telling Gujju media - Aam Khavo ped kyon ginte Ho, which means eat mango and dont count trees, in other words eat our bribe money and do not expose our misdeeds.
    Anandi Ben's son Shwitank has changed his name to Sanjay because his name was sounding like Sh#!t-tank. But now the name S#!tank seems to be apt name to him after this exposure.

    You are indeed exposed four cardinal issues related the BJP Government.

    Mr. Modi's love for the western world, the beef eaters land?. Some ultra untouchable spirited persons, even educated people won't touch the beef eaters since they are untouchables. But Mr. Modi is not that type, but loves them and hug them and delighted to supply the beef eaters plenty of beef from Gujarat.

    English medium schools? That is only for the high caste and high class people even Mr. Modi is too particular to speak only in Hindi language due to his untouchability of the English language as an abomination and unpatriotic to talk.

    By the finishing of the BJP Government, many in the party circle would be joined in the cadre with the Ambani march.

    The real show of Indian administration is strictly Mr. Modi PLUS Amith Shaw=BJP. Mr. Shaw was in Kerala promising high prosperity if BJP is voted to power, thus he will be giving away the Rs. 15 lakh/person black money share exclusively to the people of Kerala thus the amount would be tripled of that amount.
