The petitioner has claimed that Mamata Banerjee's family amassed properties worth more than Rs 20 crore "specially after 2011".
A plea in the Calcutta High Court has alleged an exponential rise in the assets of the family members of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in recent years. It has also sought an investigation into the matter by a central agency.
The court will hear the PIL on November 28.
The petitioner has claimed that the Trinamool Congress chief's family amassed properties worth more than Rs 20 crore "specially after 2011".
"We have shown each and every document that shows a huge increase in the assets of the family members of Mamata Banerjee. We have shown that in election affidavits, they did not disclose the actual assets. We have shown properties worth more than Rs 20 crore have been acquired by them, at different times, specifically after 2011, more specifically after 2013 when the chit fund scam was busted," said the petitioner, Tarunjyoti Tiwari.
