India’s leading political parties are disputing over a multi-million dollar scam involving Bitcoin in the southern state of Karnataka following the popularity of the top cryptocurrency in the country.

On November 13, Randeep Singh Surjewala, a spokesperson of the Indian National Congress (INC), accused the opposition party Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) government of Karnataka of covering up the country’s biggest Bitcoin (BTC) scam. Further, the party asked Basavaraj Bommai, Chief Minister of India (INC), to reveal the identities of all the people involved in the fraud.

Randeep Singh Surjewala said,

It is an example of intricacy, deceit, cover-up, concealment and whitewash that smacks of deep-rooted conspiracies. It is India’s biggest-ever ‘Bitcoin Scam Cover Up’ under the Karnataka BJP government. The BJP Government of Karnataka seems to be obsessed with a cover up, instead of conducting a fair investigation.

Surjewala’s statement also follows rumors that Prime Minister NarendraModi tried to end the investigation and told Bommai to forget about it.

Furthermore, Karnataka’s former chief minister and senior leader of Congress Siddaramaiah also tweeted on November 12.

Expanding further, Siddaramaiah adds that they don’t know if Bommai is involved in the Bitcoin scam or not. They are asking for an investigation and punishment of the perpetrators. He asked why Prime Minister NarendraModi had requested that the CM ignore this matter.

It is important to note that this scam took place in 2019. However, the news just came to light a year ago after Bengaluru’s Central Crime Branch police caught a hacker named Srikrishna and his partners in a narcotics case.
