Beneficiaries forgot him but I had his statue raised: Sunil

Reacting sharply to Shahi’s utterances that Biscomaun Chairman has forgotten the legacies of legendry Tapeshwar Singh, Sunil Singh mailed photographs from archives and said while his own relatives forgot him it was he (Sunil) who got the statues raised in the honor of Tapeshwar Babu and Naval Babu at the Biscomaun headquarters near Gandhi Maidan in Patna.

“I even invited his wife and son to be a part of the event when his statue was being unveiled. Giriraj Singh was also there”, said Sunil while mailing the photographs.

Defending himself further Sunil said the invite sent to all mentions offering floral tributes to the great leader on 27th February before dinner at the revolving restaurant. Biscomaun always remembers the great man but those who have benefitted directly from him seem to pay merely lip service to his cause, added Sunil.

And so far as including Shahi’s name in the reception committee is concerned, please ask the man to come clean; did he not put pressure on me through a dozen of PACS Chairmen who pleaded for his inclusion in the mega show, asked Sunil Singh.

“I will stop talking to you if you give so much importance to a person like Vinay Shahi. He may be the Chairman of State co-operative union but he hardly carries any weight”, said an irritated Biscomaun Chairman who finds his attention divided due to this episode as he has to plan for a mega cooperative show later in the month in Bihar.

Besides host of Ministers of Bihar Cabinet, several top-notch cooperative leaders of the country including NCUI President Chandra Pal Singh are going to be part of this show. Sunil’s clout in the national cooperative scenario could be understood from the fact that he has managed to synchronize Board meetings of three National Cooperative Federations with his co-op show to have a larger presence. NCUI, NAFSCOB and KRIBHCO boards are meeting in Patna this time.

“Take it from me, elections are round the corner and he is going to be a stuff of the past. Did I not predict results of elections of NCUI, NAFED and NCCF to you? Was I ever wrong?” said Sunil predicting a short-lived political life for Vinay Shahi.
