New Delhi: It's not just the IPL team owners who have been reluctant to disclose their assets, many of our Members of Parliament are also not clean about their assets.
Despite sending six personal reminders and nine circulars over nine months, there are 51 such MPs who have failed to disclose their assets and liabilities to the House.
