Center is using CBI, ED, NCB as weapons and oppressing everyone: Pawar

184 crore black money seized from Ajit Pawar's relatives in NCP supremo ground

Maharashtra gets Rs. Delay in payment of Rs 3,000 crore, coal was stopped and GST of Rs. 35,000 crore does not pay

In Maharashtra, the Uddhav Thackeray government will complete five years and return to power

MUMBAI: Maharashtra's top leader and staunch politician Sharad Pawar has openly accused the Modi government of lobbying central agencies like CBI, Enforcement Directorate (ED), IT and NCB in states where the BJP is not in power.

With this, Sharad Pawar claimed that the Uddhav Thackeray-led government in Maharashtra would complete five years and also succeed in coming back to power. On the other hand, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray also alleged that the Center was constantly being beheaded in the day-to-day operations of the state.

Sharad Pawar said that the Maharashtra government has spent Rs. After delaying the payment of Rs 3,000 crore for 10-12 days, the central government had started making allegations and cut off the supply of coal to Maharashtra. Maharashtra, on the other hand, still has Rs. The amount of GST of Rs 35,000 crore could not be received, but no one speaks on the issue.

The central government is only intimidating the states through the central investigative agencies. Defending his minister Nawab Malik, Sharad Pawar said that the ED had been used against his son-in-law as Nawab Malik was constantly speaking against the policies of the Center. This is why the ED is interrogating him. The same is happening against Malik's relatives.

Apart from politics, Pawar also questioned the central government about the country's current economy. At present, petrol-diesel prices are rising steadily. The NCP president said that the fall in international crude oil prices started three months ago, but the central government had started raising petrol-diesel and kerosene prices in the country. Rising petrol-diesel prices have increased the economic burden on the common man.

He further said, "I say very responsibly that the frontline government of Maharashtra has come under my leadership." And it was approved in the meeting of MLAs that Shiv Sena will become the Chief Minister and my friend suggested Uddhav Thackeray, the son of Shiv Sena President Balasaheb Thackeray, to become the Chief Minister. "I have told him that Uddhav Thackeray has become the Chief Minister," said Sharad Pawar.

The BJP has been running the government in Maharashtra for the last five years with Uddhav Thackeray and Shiv Sena. Uddhav Thackeray also knows your work closely. I do not think it is appropriate to make any allegations against Uddhav Thackeray. Otherwise, the impeachment process will continue. Therefore, I would like to say specially today that such a time will not come, said Sharad Pawar.

"Hindutva is in danger," the Maharashtra chief minister told a Shiv Sena rally. It is not from parks but from neo-Hindus. On the issue of Hindutva, after gaining power at the Center, the policy of the British was to divide and rule. The BJP has always set a date for forming a government. But so far the government has not been able to provide. Uddhav Thackeray had given an open challenge to the BJP to show that if there is courage, Mahavikas will lead the government.

Opposition leader Devendra Fadnavis, meanwhile, retaliated by heating up the political atmosphere in Maharashtra. Leader of Opposition Devendra Fadnavis uses computer chip (special software) for recovery of Maharashtra ministers. Mahavikas Aghadi laid the blame on the government.

Replying to this, Sharad Pawar said that Fadnavis should show what the chip is and explain in detail how to recover from it so that we can increase our knowledge. However, Fadnavis further said that if the chip was investigated, it would prove the corruption of half the ministers. But we work in a democratic way.

Every government has set up a central investigative body against the opposition

NCP president Sharad Pawar has accused the central government of using the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) as a weapon against the opposition. However, every government has made the Central Investigation Institutions a hand against the opposition.

The UPA government also used the CBI against the opposition for its own interests. The CBI is known to have cracked down on old cases against SP, BSP, Trinamool Congress, DMK, Left parties who are not ready to join the UPA-era or support its bill in the Lok Sabha.

In 2013, during the UPA government, Justice Lodha of the Supreme Court had called the CBI a "cage parrot" in a case of alleged irregularities in the allocation of coal mines to private companies. In short, the government at the center belongs to anyone who, whenever given the opportunity, uses the central investigative bodies as a weapon against the opposition.
