New Delhi: The BJP on Monday maintained silence over Opposition attack on two party leaders - a minister and an MP - being linked to the Paradise Papers. The Paradise Papers are a cache of leaked files from one of the world's largest offshore law firms. The names of junior civil aviation minister Jayant Sinha and Rajya Sabha MP R.K. Sinha have been linked to companies named in the list. R.K. Sinha declared a maun vrat (vow of silence). The disclosures have come at a time the BJP was planning to celebrate the anniversary of demonetisation as anti-black-money day.
