The former Kingfisher Airlines boss had claimed Wednesday in London that he met Jaitley before leaving India and offered to settle his dues, a charge the finance minister denied and dubbed "false".
Congress alleged that the incumbent government has failed to take action against Nirav Modi and Mehul Choksi despite having information regarding the fraud.
Officials said the request was sent to the Home Ministry on Friday. The Home Minister will send it to Belgium, where Nishal Modi is believed to be holding up, through the External Affairs Ministry.
Bhansali is also said to have purchased a USD 7 million worth property in the US "from the funds believed to be generated from the alleged PNB scam".
In his plea, Choksi claimed that the Indian prisons 'violate human rights conditions'.
The Congress has demanded that the Prime Minister should make the letter public to clear the air about multiple narratives about 'resumtion of dialogue' with Pakistan.
Suryawanshi said one of the "illegal" bungalows in the district belongs to Mehul Choksi, a diamond trader and co-accused in the PNB scam, but there was a court stay on its demolition, along with some other unauthorised buildings.
In total, there are 121 illegal bungalows in Alibaug and 151 illegal bungalows at Murud in Raigad district, informed the minister.
Nirav Modi and Mehul Choksi are being investigated by the ED and the CBI after it was detected that they allegedly cheated PNB of more than Rs 13,400 crore with the purported involvement of a few of its employees.
Antigua and Barbuda Prime Minister Gaston Browne had earlier claimed that at the time Choksi took the citizenship last year there was no case pending against him.
The court has asked the duo to appear before it on September 25 at 11 am, the same date on which Nirav has also been summoned by it under the Fugitive Economic Offenders Act.
Last week, an Antiguan media report quoted the Caribbean country's Citizenship by Investment Unit (CIU) as saying that Choksi was granted citizenship there last year after a background check on him got 'no adverse report' from Indian authorities, including police, passport office and SEBI.
Modi and his uncle, Mehul Choksi, are the main accused in the PNB scam and they both left India before the details of the fraud came to light on January 16
Choksi's application for citizenship in Antigua in May 2017 was accompanied with clearance from the local police as required by norm, report in an Antiguan newspaper said.
The government has sent a request to the UK for extraditing fugitive diamantaire Nirav Modi, who is wanted in the Rs 13,500 crore Punjab National Bank (PNB) fraud case
The government also told the Antiguan authorities to prevent Choksi's movement from land, air or sea.
Apart from Modi, summons have been issued to his associates- Mihir Bhansali, Rakhi Bhansali, Ajay Gandhi and Kunal Patel.
The visit follows the case it registered against Nirav Modi earlier this year following three different cases filed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
Diamantaire Nirav Modi's uncle was reportedly seeking asylum in the US. Based on this information Indian authorities had sought Washington's help in his extradition.
In reply to the tax notices, most of the people said that they did not make any cash payment, but this version does not corroborate with the data obtained by the IT Department vis-a-vis the sales made by the firms of Nirav Modi.
