NDA, Opposition spar over Vijay Mallya in Parliament

New Delhi, Mar 10 (IBNS) The Parliament was rocked on Thursday over the departure of liquor baron Vijay Mallya from India with the Opposition and the ruling NDA sparring over him.
While Congress lawmaker Ghulam Nabi Azad said the government is a party to his escape from India (he is now in the UK reportedly), the BJP hit back saying Mallya is not a saint to them. 
 
Union Minister Rajiv Rudy said 'Mallya is not a saint for us' and targetted the Opposition arguing that all the debts have to be paid back by Mallya and that it was in the Congress regime that he got the support financially. 
 
"Has a single penny been given by NDA government? All which has gone was given by UPA government," said Rudy. 
 
Amid reports that Mallya is in UK in his country house near London, the Supreme Court, which was hearing a plea made by a consortium of banks that Vijay Mallya should not be allowed to leave India, has issued notice to the former UB Group chairman why his passport should not be impounded.
 
Mallya has to reply to the notice in two weeks.
 
Government lawyer Mukul Rohatgi informed SC that he has been told by CBI that Mallya has possibly left the country on Mar 2, 2016.
 

  Vijay Mallya, the former United Breweries (UB) group chairman,  left India even while the consortium of banks to which his grounded Kingfisher Airlines owe a massive debt were asking the SC on Tuesday to stop him from leaving.
