The total value of his assets has increased to Rs 15.9 crores in the last five years. So, the net worth has increased by roughly 69 per cent.
In 2014, he had declared total assets worth Rs 9.4 crore. His movable assets, on the other hand, have decreased from Rs 8.07 crore to Rs 5.8 crores, a lion’s share of which – Rs 5.19 crore – is in mutual funds. The cash on hand he has declared to be just Rs 40,000.
The Congress president has also declared five criminal complaints against him – four of which are for defamation of BJP and RSS members. The fifth case is related to cheating and criminal breach of trust in the National Herald case. However, an FIR has not been filed in any of the cases so far.
