Press Statement
 
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:
 
Scrap Electoral Bonds
 
The recent exposures on how the electoral bond scheme was a route to finance
the ruling party has once again established that such legalization of
political corruption must end.
 
The PMO has been directing the Finance Ministry to instruct the State Bank
of India to flout the ministry's own laid down rules to permit the
realization of expired bonds to facilitate its horse-trading in the post
Karnataka assembly election situation that resulted in a hung assembly. 
 
In the interests of Indian democracy and the sanctity of our election
process, these electoral bonds must be scrapped immediately.
