WATCH: Asked About Paradise Papers, Accused BJP MP Hints ‘7 Din Ka Maun Vrat Hai.’ *facepalm*

After Panama Papers, Paradise Papers have taken over the headlines, exposing the big and mighty who have stashed money in tax havens through offshore entities. If you missed the memo, 714 Indian individuals and companies have been listed including big-shots like Amitabh Bachchan, Manyata Dutt, Vijay Mallya and more. 

The long list of international leaders and celebrities on the records also includes Indian politicians who have been accused of money-laundering and evading taxes.

And as much as I’d like to talk about all, I’m unfathomably tempted to discuss one of the many names that appeared- BJP MP Ravindra Kishore Sinha. Why the sudden and biased approach, you ask? I’ll tell you why…

It so happened that ANI reached out to RK Sinha, a former journalist BTW, probably to ask about his security firm that has been linked to offshore entities and all he had to offer was muffled voices and a piece of paper that read…

“7 din ke bhagwat yagna main
maun vrat hai.”

No, your eyes are not deceiving you and neither am I.

If you still need more convincing, watch the entire video here.

Yes, it is one of those days. But don’t you worry, it’s not just you and me.

The entire Internet is baffled at the minister’s reaction too! See for yourself.

Well, I’m not sure if this is an Idea that can ‘change a life’ but, I’m certain that the MP’s face value just took a hit. And a big one at that!
