Anna Hazare's aide Arvind Kejriwal, who has been issued an Income Tax notice to pay Rs9 lakh as dues during his service in the government till 2006, on Friday said he had not violated any rules and the official claims were baseless.
"I have not violated any rule. In 2006, when I had resigned from the service, I had written to the government to deduct my dues from my general provident fund (GPF)," Kejriwal told reporters.
However, the government did not deduct the dues and instead served him a notice after four years and just before Hazare began his fast for a stronger Lokpal bill, he said.
Kejriwal alleged that his uncle and other relatives in Siwani in Haryana were probed and harassed by officials of the Intelligence Bureau and other agencies. Officials were asking people to give information about any irregularity by him or relatives, he added.
