BJP MP Manoj Tiwari has called for a full investigation into the recent incident where a "wad of currency notes" was reportedly recovered from the Rajya Sabha seat of Congress MP Abhishek Manu Singhvi. Reacting to the statement made by the Rajya Sabha Chairman, Tiwari expressed his surprise and concern, questioning the origins of the money and emphasizing the need for a thorough inquiry.

In a media interaction, Tiwari said, “A bundle of notes has been recovered from the bench. This is a matter of investigation. The Vice President of India has ordered an inquiry into the matter. I am surprised as to where these bundles of notes are being recovered from Congress leaders.”

The BJP leader’s comments come after the Rajya Sabha Chairman confirmed the discovery of cash at Singhvi's designated seat in the upper house, marking the incident as a serious matter that warrants further scrutiny. Tiwari, who represents the BJP’s sharp stance on accountability, stressed the importance of transparency, calling for an immediate investigation into the source of the money.

Tiwari also pointed out that the discovery of such cash in Parliament raises significant questions about the Congress party’s conduct and practices. “This incident should be investigated,” he asserted, adding that the public deserves answers about the circumstances of the cash recovery.

The Vice President of India, who also serves as the Chairman of Rajya Sabha, has reportedly ordered an inquiry into the matter, signaling that the issue will not be dismissed lightly. Meanwhile, the Congress party has yet to provide an official response to the allegations, and it remains to be seen how the opposition will address the matter in the coming days.

The controversy over the cash recovery has added fuel to the ongoing political debate, with the BJP seizing the opportunity to accuse the Congress of questionable practices. As Parliament prepares for further discussions, the case is likely to continue dominating headlines, with both the ruling party and the opposition bracing for more scrutiny.

The investigation into the cash discovery is expected to reveal more details, and the incident may lead to further political ramifications as the story unfolds.
