NEW DELHI, Mar. 15, 2024 (TBINN)
The list of entities which purchased electoral bonds to make political donations is a veritable Who’s Who of the corporate world.
But possibly the biggest donor, according to the list released by the Election Commission, is a little known lottery company called Future Gaming and Hotel Services.
The better known names include steel tycoon Lakshmi Mittal, Sunil Bharti Mittal’s Bharti Airtel, Anil Agarwal’s Vedanta, I.T.C., Mahindra and Mahindra, D.L.F., P.V.R., Birlas, Bajajs, Jindals, Spicejet, IndiGo and the Goenkas.
Future Gaming and Hotel Services purchased possibly the highest amount of bonds worth Rs 1,368 crore, followed by Megha Engineering and Infrastructure Ltd at Rs 966 crore. Future Gaming was probed by the Enforcement Directorate in March 2022.
