The anti-talk ULFA (Independent) today blamed Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi for inviting dubious chit fund companies who duped investors and demanded that he ensures that they are paid back their dues.
"The Chief Minister himself has claimed that a chit fund company had donated Rs 20 lakh to his relief fund," ULFA-I's Assistant Information and Publicity Secretary Arunodoy Asom said in a statement e-mailed to PTI.
The Chief Minister has himself claimed often that during his terms in office there has been inflow of investment but the "fact is that he has created a situation where anybody who donates money was welcome to do anything in the state."
"The Chief Minister also has to take the responsibility of returning the money lost by the investors," he added.
The outfit claimed that they would fully cooperate with people and organisations who have launched a movement to ensure that the investors get their hard earned money back.
The outfit also urged all chit fund companies to return the investors all their invested amount and close the companies in the state.
