‘Restore Sharad Pawar’s political credibility by removing Deshmukh’: RS Prasad

The three-party alliance government in Maharashtra is "of extortion (vasuli), by extortion and for extortion", senior BJP leader and Union minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said on Tuesday and added that the Uddav Thackeray-led dispensation has lost the moral right to govern the state.

The BJP's scathing attack on the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress alliance government came following former Mumbai Police commissioner Param Bir Singh's allegation that the state's Home Minister Anil Deshmukh had set a Rs 100-crore collection target for the police every month.

Taking on NCP supremo Sharad Pawar, Prasad said the political credibility of the senior leader has taken a hit and that he was forced to speak a patent falsehood for defending his party colleague and state home minister Deshmukh.

Prasad further said Pawar's credibility can be restored only if he ensures resignation of Deshmukh.

Mumbai Hit-n-Run: Congress Leader Charges Mumbai Police and CM Shinde For Delay in Investigation

Opposition leader Vijay Wadettiwar accused the Maharashtra government of deliberately delaying the arrest of Mihir Shah, the main suspect in a recent incident. Wadettiwar alleged this delay was to allow time for alcohol to clear from Shah's system before testing. He claimed the police and government attempted to cover up the issue, hiding Shah until he tested negative for alcohol. Wadettiwar suggested this was done to protect the accused and called for a high-level investigation into the matter, questioning the integrity of the arrest process. #MumbaiHitNRun #PuneHitnRun #MihirShah #EknathShinde #Shinde #Wadettiwar #CongressMaharashtra #Indianews #Oneindia #Oneindianews ~PR.320~ED.155~GR.124~HT.96~
