SILCHAR, May 27: The AUDF might have succeeded in establishing itself as a considerable political force in Barak Valley finishing second in both the Parliamentary constituencies in the valley. Party supremo Badrauddin Ajmal, though, could not win the prestigious Silchar seat, but it was indeed a matter of pride for the perfume boron to push the Congress heavy weight Sontosh Mohan Dev to the third position.
In Karimganj constituency also, AUDF’s Rajesh Mallah maintained a considerable lead right from the beginning of counting but in the last moment, Congress candidate Lalit Mohan Shuklabaidya reversed the table with blessings of his political mentor Gautam Roy.
AUDF narrowly lost the Karimganj seat but the Amal brigade had succeeded in proving that they were a powerful political force. AUDF had reasons to celebrate but in reality AUDF was a disturbed family, a family in turmoil.
Rajesh Mallah was accused of sacrificing the sureshot Karimganj seat following a last minute deal with Gautam Roy who had reportedly assured him a Congress ticket for Ratabari SC seat in 2011 Assembly election as well as a hefty amount of Rs 50 lakh.
Most surprisingly, AUDF candidate Anil Nath who gave Roy a run for his money in 2006 Assembly election in the latter’s strong fort in Katlicherra, openly expressed doubt over Mallah’s integrity.
Even, the party’s working president Hafiz Rashid Choudhury told The Sentinel that Mallah had erred in not raising a voice of protest when he found the counting was not done in a proper manner.
Talking to The Sentinel, Mallah who is now in Guwahati to discuss, the issue of the allegation of a last minute deal between Roy and Mallah with Mallah sacrificing the seat, with Ajmal said, Nath was entrusted with the job of a deputy counting agent in Hailakandi district and now he should take moral responsibility if his machinery failed to Roy’s sinister design.
In Cachar, the picture was almost the same, the only difference was that in Silchar, the candidate was none other than Ajmal himself. But in spite of that, a major gorup of the district unit had raised fingers against party MLA Ataur Rahman Majharbhuiya, general secretary Altaf Hussain Mazumdar and youth leader Saminul Haque Barbhuiya alleging that the trio had laundered a huge amount of money, Ajmal had given them for party works during the election.
On April 7, just a week before the election, Ajmal sent Ajmal Group chief accountant Abbasuddin who looked after the accounts of the groups business in at least seven countries to check the accounts in Silchar. Abbasuddin had reportedly found lots of irregularities. He found that payments were made against vouchers countersigned by either Majharbhuiya or Majumder or Barbhuiya.
They had completely ignored the district committee president Anup Choudhury, a Hindu advocate. Majharbhuiya had discouraged Choudhury’s suggestion of holiding a rally in Silchar on the grounds that AUDF did not want Hindu votes.
AUDF’s Baskhola unit had raised a sharp voice against the trio in a meeting at Arjan Ali memorial high school in Jatingamukh on Sunday. Nekbut Jaman Laskar, a youth leader of AUDF openly criticised the role of Saminul and Altaf alleging that they did not properly disburse the money among the party workers though Ajmal had supplied them with sufficient money.
Meanwhile, a source said Saminul was detained by Udharbond police on April 16. Saminul was allegedly carrying Rs 6.5 lakh with him.
Police confirmed the detention of Saminul admitting that he spent the night in police station but denied that he was carrying money with him. THE SENTINEL
