Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 10 (ANI): Reacting to the alleged irregularities involving Parth Pawar in the Pune land deal case, AIMIM leader Waris Pathan claimed that all cases against Ajit Pawar vanished after he joined the BJP, asserting that "no inquiry will ever take place" against his son.
"There were cases of thousands of crores of rupees scam on Ajit Pawar himself... After he joined BJP, all allegations ended and he became the Deputy CM. Where will the inquiry take place on his son?... There will be no inquiry... There is highest level of corruption going on," Pathan told ANI.
The controversy surrounds the sale of 40 acres of government-owned land in Pune's Mundhwa area to Amadea Enterprises LLP, a firm linked to Parth Pawar. The deal has been criticised for allegedly undervaluing the land and evading stamp duty.
Earlier, Nationalist Congress Party (Sharadchandra Pawar) leader and former Maharashtra revenue minister Eknath Khadse slammed the Mahayuti government over the multi-crore Pune land deal case, saying that attempts are being made to protect Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar's son Parth Pawar.
He also demanded Ajit Pawar's resignation on moral grounds.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has assured that action would be taken against anyone found guilty, stating, "No one will be spared; Inquiry identifying all involved will be completed within a month."
Speaking to the media, CM Fadnavis said FIRs have already been filed against the company and its authorised signatories, adding that "no one has been spared."
Asked about the Opposition parties' criticism over not naming Parth Pawar in the FIR, he said, "Those who don't even understand what an FIR (First Information Report) is are the ones making such baseless allegations. When an FIR is registered, it is filed against the express parties involved."
The Opposition has called for a judicial inquiry, citing irregularities in the transaction. Ajit Pawar has distanced himself from the deal, claiming he has no connection to it. (ANI)
