Dear Mr. Arun Firodia and Ms. Sulajja Firodia Motwani,
It has been alleged in some sections of the press that your name has been shown associated with Kinetic Finance Limited and Athena Financial Services Limited and is being reported to Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and Credit Information Bureau of India Limited (CIBIL) as 'Willful Defaulter' along-with your daughter Ms. Sulajja Firodia Motwani, by many banks since 2005 till date.
Can you please tell how much total money your companies owe to the banks and are you willing to repay the banks outstanding by selling the assets of your other group companies or by any other means ?
It has also been alleged that a lot of banks have initiated criminal action against company directors alleging fraudulent misappropriation of Borrowed Public Money.
It is said that Bank of Rajasthan has a Criminal Case pending in Pune Court even today.
It has also been said that, in none of the criminal cases, you and your daughter have been able to get any relief, from the Honorable Bombay High Court and Honorable Supreme Court of India.
Mr. Firodia, it is also being said that banks have not reported about your willful default to CBI (BS&FC) / CID Pune Police?
And it has also being said that despite all the above, you have been awarded Padma Shri in the year 2012.
And also it is being said that you and your daughter have been holding important and sensitive positions in CSIR, DSIR, NCAD, CSIO and Planning Commission.
It is being said that your daughter and you have continuously been holding the position of Member Governing Body CSIR for two consecutive terms as given below:
1. 2007-2010 - Ms. Sulajja Firodia Motwani - Member Governing Body CSIR.
2. 2010-2013 - Mr. Arun H. Firodia - Member Governing Body CSIR.
It is being heard that despite an inadequate scientific background, Ms. Sulajja Firodia Motwani was holding an important post in CSIR?
It is said that she is not even a science graduate and does not have any experience of science and technology.
It is being heard that you have used influence in Delhi to corner these important positions for you and your kin?
That it is also being alleged that you have used your any such influence in Delhi to get your name cleared for Padma Shri Award despite the banking defaults?
It is also being alleged that another Director in your flagship company Kinetic Engineering Limited, by name Dr. KH Sanceti has been awarded a Padma Award alongwith you in 2012?
Can you please tell if this is just a coincidence?
It is alleged that your cousin brother Mr. Abhay Firodia is very close to Mr. Sharad Pawar of NCP and that your son Mr. Ajinkya Firodia and Mr. Suresh Kalmadi's bother Mr. Shridhar Kalmadi are both Directors in ZF Steering Gear India Limited?
So, Mr. Firodia, we will highly appreciate if you can provide us with some valuable information refuting the above.
We would like to believe that the above is untrue and baseless as you are a reputed technocrat and come from a family known for its Gandhian values.
An early reply in this matter shall be highly appreciated.
Sincerely
India Is Against Corruption (IIAC)
