"I have requested the police to talk to me and give me a hearing. I am ready to cooperate and face any inquiry," Ghosh told reporters here.
The Trinamool Congress MP said that false propaganda has been launched against him over the issue.
An FIR has been filed against him at the Bhawanipore police station by employees of closed Bengali daily 'Sakalbela' for non-payment of salaries and another at the Park Street police station by employees of Channel 10, a television channel, for a similar reason.

He has claimed that he was not connected with Saradha's money market activities and was ready to resign his RS seat if investigation revealed his complicity in the scam.
