Also, how the F does the TMC get almost the same amount of donations as the Congress? As one of the comments says, it obviously has to be the proceeds of scam money being laundered through shell companies. Blatant looting of the public!!! 😡😡😡
BJP just legalized corruption otherwise before 2014 all parties used to take the money under the table so why are leftists so happy as if some big thing have come out ? All party will now take money under the table as previously they were doing.
This thing will only work for some propaganda for parties as of now otherwise they both know reality.
Speccialy both parties now trying to post their own type of data. Now only one thing will happen that is political parties will hound bussiness that did not donated to them.
Matching of donors with recipients is one of the first step in trying to establish quid pro quo, the other being if such entities were shell companies and thereafter establishing their source of fund can reveal a lot.
Also, the major flak is being received by BJP cause not only are they the major recipients of the donations through EB but also cause they brought in this highly opaque mechanism of donation. They also removed all safeguards to corporate donation mechanism such as limiting donation by linking them with profit.
The proponents of "now back to black money/ under the table mechanism" must understand this mechanism existed before EB during EB and even after EB. EB in no ways limited black money on the other hand it encouraged funneling of money either as quid pro quo or through laundering while giving the protection of anonymity which was absent in the pre-EB regime (read qua public scrutiny).
