The ‘Good news’ came yesterday

The money was stuck with the Sahara Group for many years. People had almost lost the hope to be actually able to get the money back. But then came this announcement from Amit Sah. He said, “A portal has been developed for submission of legitimate claims by the genuine depositors of the Sahara Group of cooperative societies namely — Sahara Credit Cooperative Society Ltd, Saharayan Universal Multipurpose Society Ltd, Humara India Credit Cooperative Society Ltd and Stars Multipurpose Cooperative Society Ltd.”

“Tomorrow is a special day for those whose money was stuck in Sahara’s cooperative societies for many years. The Modi government is moving towards fulfilling the resolution of returning the deposits of those investors, under which the ‘Sahara Refund Portal’ will be launched tomorrow. The commitment of the Ministry of Cooperatives under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi will bring relief to all those people who are waiting to get back their hard earned money,” Amit Shah said on Twitter.

Following a Supreme Court judgement directing the transfer of 5,000 crore to the Central Registrar of Cooperative Societies (CRCS) from the Sahara-SEBI refund account, the central government had previously announced that it would reimburse the money of 10 crore investors within nine months.
