CINTAA Row: Upasana Singh Alleges Poonam Dhillon, Padmini Kolhapure Broke ₹90 Lakh FDs, Transferred Funds From Frozen Account

Former CINTAA office-bearer Upasana Singh has accused actresses Poonam Dhillon and Padmini Kolhapure of breaking the organization's fixed deposits and transferring funds from a frozen account. Speaking to IANS, Upasana alleged that CINTAA held fixed deposits and bank accounts across five banks, and that the banks had been notified about the dissolution of the committee when she was treasurer.

She explained that the accounts were intended to remain frozen until a court order recognized the new committee, but instead, the money was transferred into the accounts of Dhillon and Kolhapure. Upasana claimed that CINTAA's office staff facilitated the process by providing the necessary documentation and visiting the bank to demonstrate the organization's legitimacy.

She also noted that the exact amount of the broken fixed deposits is unclear, but estimates it to be around ₹90 lakh.
