Controversial entrepreneur and BharatPe co-founder Ashneer Grover has fiercely targeted former SBI chairman and BharatPe board chairman Rajnish Kumar after resigning from the company. Ashneer Grover said that Rajnish Kumar did not maintain any confidentiality as a chairman and was involved in leaking information to the media. Ashneer Grover said these things in an interview given to our associate news channel CNBC-TV18.
Ashneer Grover said, “Every paper of the document related to the audit report is being leaked in the media. No secrecy was kept in this whole process.”
Ashneer Grover, giving his side, said that Rajnish Kumar is a capable person, who has handled SBI, a company that is hundreds of times bigger than Bharatpe, and there has never been any leak in the media.
He said, “There are two things. Either you are incapable person, who is not Rajnish Kumar at all, or you are involved in media leaks. Rajnish Kumar may have handled more than 10 lakh employees in SBI, but we have never seen things there. Haven’t heard of any spoilage.”

Grover says that his love for Bharatpe and “his loss in this fight” led him to take the decision to resign as MD of the company. He also clarified that he has decided to go ahead and is not interested in the legal battle.
Let us inform that Ashneer Grover resigned from Bharatpe on Tuesday 1 March after his name came in many controversies after a fight in the boardroom. A few days earlier, Grover’s wife Madhuri Jain had also resigned as the company’s head of controls following allegations of misappropriation of funds.
Grover has also lost the arbitration he filed against fintech platform Bhartpe a day ago to launch an investigation against him in Singapore. The arbitration said that it does not believe in any basis on which the ongoing governance investigation in BharatPe can be stopped.
