NEW DELHI: Embattled liquor baron Vijay Mallya on Thursday asked the government to accept his offer to repay 100 percent of his loan dues and the close case against him.

While congratulating Centre over the Rs 20 lakh crore economic package, Mallya lamented that his repeated offers to repay his dues have been ignored.

Mallya, promoter of the defunct Kingfisher Airlines, is wanted in India over alleged fraud and money laundering charges amounting to estimated Rs 9,000 crore. He is fighting against his extradition to India.

"Congratulations to the Government for a COVID 19 relief package. They can print as much currency as they want BUT should a small contributor like me who offers 100% payback of State-owned Bank loans are constantly ignored?" he said in a tweet.

"Please take my money unconditionally and close," he added.

Earlier this month, Mallya had filed an appeal in the UK Supreme Court after losing an appeal in the London High Court against an extradition order to India on money laundering charges.

The businessman had earlier tweeted that he had offered to pay 100 percent of the amount borrowed by Kingfisher Airlines to the banks but neither banks were willing to take the money nor the Enforcement Directorate was willing to release his attached assets at the behest of the banks.
