2016/ Rs 85cr of Sena’s Rs 87cr receipts came from Videocon alone
Home appliances maker Videocon Industries appears to be the Shiv Sena's biggest benefactor. The company , part of a $5bn Mumbai-headquartered group accounted for all but a fraction of the donations which the Shiv Sena has disclosed to the Election Commission of India.
A total contribution of Rs 86.84 crore was shown as received by Sena from corporates and non-corporates in 2015-16. Of this, a whopping Rs 85 crore came from Videocon, controlled by the industrialist Rajkumar Dhoot, who has represented Sena in Rajya Sabha for three consecutive terms.
Last year too, Videocon had contributed to the Sena's kitty , but the amount was relatively meagre: Rs 2.83 crore. This year, it has been lavished funds on the Sena while donations to oth er parties have been slim. Videocon gave Rs 25 lakh to NCP.
