Income Tax authorities have issued a notice to Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) legislator Waheed-ur-Rehman Para, who represents Pulwama in South Kashmir. The notice, served on December 22, summoned Para to appear before the Income Tax (I-T) office in Srinagar to submit his books of accounts and financial documents. The summons was issued under Section 131 of the Income Tax Act, which mandates the production of financial records for verification purposes.
The case is linked to Para's affidavit submitted during the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly Elections, 2024. The affidavit indicated that Para spent just over ₹14 lakh on his election campaign. Of this amount, approximately ₹12 lakh was received from loans, gifts, and donations from individuals, companies, firms, or associations. The notice also references the total value of Para's moveable and immoveable assets, which amounted to more than ₹2.5 crore, including inherited agricultural land valued at ₹2 crore.
In response to the notice, Waheed-ur-Rehman Para stated that he would attend the summons and clarify the situation. He assured that there was no wrongdoing on his part, noting that he had undergone multiple investigations in the past without any issues. Despite this, Para expressed frustration with what he described as "endless investigations."
This development comes amid a series of investigations into Para's financial dealings, raising questions about transparency in the election process and political financing in Jammu and Kashmir.
