'Days after Modi's note ban, NSA Doval's son started Cayman Islands hedge fund'

New Delhi: The Congress on Thursday alleged National Security Adviser Ajit Doval's son Vivek started a hedge fund in Cayman Islands days after demonetisation and demanded a probe by the Reserve Bank into FDI inflows from the tax haven.

Addressing a press conference here days after a media report highlighted the same issue, Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh also asked the RBI to make public details of FDI inflows from Cayman islands since demonetisation, which he claimed were to the tune of Rs 8,300 crore during 2017-18 and equalled total funds flowing into India between 2000 to 2017.

Ramesh, however, did not substantiate his allegations with any documentary evidence.

There was no immediate comment available from either Doval or his son and his company.
