Pawar is speaking half-truth, the government wants to save at any cost: Fadnavis

Mumbai, Sunday 21 March 2021

After NCP leader Sharad Pawar's press conference, former Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis held a press conference and targeted the Uddhav government of Maharashtra and NCP's Sharad Pawar. It is half-truth whether the government was not aware of the rules, the government was asleep, a suspended person is appointed to the top post of the police, this cannot happen without the blessings of the government, he said. In fact, Sharad Pawar said that the whole matter should be investigated by Julio Ribeiro.

Fadnavis said that what Sharad Pawar was saying was half-truth. Parambir's committee certainly included Waze in the police, but it happened at the behest of the chief minister and the home minister. Sharad Pawar forgot to say this. Regarding the investigation with Ribeiro, Fadnavis said the question was whether the investigation would be conducted by Parambir Singh or the whole incident.

During the press conference, Fadnavis said that Subodh Jaiswal, who had been the DGP of the police, had given a report to the government that a lot of money was being exchanged in the transfer and promotion of the police. The report went to the Chief Minister. The report also went to the Home Minister after the Chief Minister and even then no action was taken on the report. An honest officer like Subodh Jaiswal, who took deputation from Maharashtra to the Center. He is now the head of CISF in Delhi, he reported. There was a transfer and promotion scam going on in which no action was taken. The name of the Home Minister and his office is coming up in the Maharashtra government.

Home Minister resigns

He said as long as Anil Deshmukh is the Home Minister, the entire case will not be investigated. Therefore, the resignation of Deshmukh is necessary. The question is who runs the home ministry in Maharashtra? Home Minister or Shiv Sena Minister, Shiv Sena Minister Anil was responding to the case in such a way that it seems as if he is running the Home Ministry. He said there should also be an investigation into who drove Waze's car in the last six months. The BJP's agitation will continue till the case is investigated and the Home Minister resigns.

If Rs 100 crore from Mumbai. Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar ji, what was the target of the whole of Maharashtra? If the target of one minister was 100 crores then what was the target of other ministers? This is not corruption, it is called operation robbery. pic.twitter.com/IVzWnlgyrK
