The Delhi HC reviewed Smriti Irani’s petition filed against Congress leaders, Jairam Ramesh, Pawan Khera and Netta D’souza for a post claiming BJP Minister Irani’s daughter Zoish Irani is running an illegal bar in Goa.
In this regard, the court issued summons to Ramesh and others, asking to delete all their social media posts. Meanwhile, Ramesh tweeted, “We will challenge and disprove the spin being put out by Ms. Irani.”
Notably, the Indian National Congress (INC) leaders alleged that Zoish Irani was running an illegal bar in Goa and using her political influence to harass Excise Commissioner Narayan M Gad, who has served a show-cause notice on the unit for July 29.
The Indian National Congress Chief Spokesperson and General Secretary Mr. Jairam Ramesh, along with media chairman Pawan Khera and All-India Mahila Congress President Netta D’Souza of Gujarat, told a Press conference that the license was only for running a restaurant, but Irani’s daughter used her political clout to obtain licenses in February last year to serve foreign, India-made foreign and country liquor, and that too in the name of a person who is no more. She even got the licenses renewed last month.
It is claimed that the illegality of the bar licenses came out in an RTI (Right to Information) application filed by activist advocate Aires Rodrigues, whose complaint forced the excise commissioner to issue the show-cause notice.
