PANJIM: The investors of Visionaries Co-operative Credit Society have served a two-day ultimatum on the government to address their grievances, failing which they have threatened to work in ensuring the defeat of BJP candidates in the forthcoming Assembly elections.
The irate investors at a protest rued the fact that despite all their efforts, nothing has materialised and they have only been fed with empty promises.
Pointing out that the Society owes depositors a total of Rs 54 crore, they demanded that all persons involved in the irregularities including the society’s former chairperson be arrested. They called for the suspension of the Assistant Registrar of Cooperative Societies for failing to take adequate action and for allowing the situation to reach its present stage.
Lamenting that former Chief Minister Digambar Kamat should have given orders for liquidating the Society in 2009 itself, they criticised consecutive BJP governments since then and CM Pramod Sawant for dragging the matter with no solution in sight or timeline to get their money back.
