Amitabh Bachchan has been making more news for his financial woes with the Income Tax department more than his movies these days. After being named in the Panama Papers controversy with daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, there were reports of the IT department re-opening the case against him over the non payment of his due to the government in 2001.Here’s one more report which claims that he was involved as the director of the firm which were supposed to construct seven hydro electric power plants in Arunachal Pradesh.
According to the report, Energy Development Corporation Ltd (EDCL) had in January 2008 signed an agreement with the state government to develop around five hydroelectric projects in East Kameng district. A year later, EDCL signed MoU for two more projects – the 24MW Tsa Chu-I and 36MW Tsa Chu-II – in Tawang district. Amitabh along with the Samajwadi Party’s Amar Singh were associated with the project. The official website still names Amar Singh as the chairman of the firm but Amitabh’s name is withdrawn.
