President to declare her assets
President Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil has decided to declare her assets.
President Mrs. Pratibha Devisingh Patil has decided to declare her assets.
This is the first time that the President of the country will be making assets public although there is no law that mandates her to do it.
The decision comes close on the heels of a suggestion from the Central Information Commission that it was for the President of India to take a call on placing her and her family's property details in public domain.
Rashtrapati Bhavan spokesperson Archana Dutta said the President was not required to declare his or her assets to any public authority. However, President Patil would declare it.
