Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 5 (ANI): In the wake of NCP MLA Dhananjay Munde’s resignation over aide’s link to Beed sarpanch murder case, former Maharashtra LoP and Congress MLA Vijay Wadettiwar said that the matter should be investigated in depth and Munde should be made a co-accused in the FIR.
“They delayed it. It is not me who is saying this but a minister of their own government. The question is that mere resignation should not end things, it should be investigated in-depth and he should be made a co-accused (in the FIR into Beed sarpanch murder) as there is enough evidence,” Wadettiwar said.
On Tuesday, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) MLA Dhananjay Munde submitted his resignation as minister, which Fadnavis accepted and forwarded to the Governor for further action.
Maharashtra Governor CP Radhakrishnan accepted the resignation of Munde, who was Minister of Food and Civil Supplies and Consumer Protection.
Earlier on Wednesday, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut said that it was the biggest mistake to administer the oath of office to Dhananjay.
Speaking to media, Raut claimed that Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis himself called Munde and asked for his resignation.
“He (Dhananjay) is fine, his health is completely okay. The Chief Minister himself called him and said that if you don’t resign, I will have to dismiss you. It was the biggest mistake to administer the oath of office to Dhananjay,” Raut said.
NCP-SCP MLA Rohit Pawar on Wednesday demanded a thorough investigation into the Beed sarpanch’s murder case, suggesting that Munde’s name should be included as a co-accused in the FIR.
Speaking to ANI, Pawar raised concerns over the involvement of Munde’s close aide, Valmik Karad, whose alleged wealth and connections to the case have come under scrutiny.
The development follows after Munde’s close aide, Walmik Karad, was sent to judicial custody in January this year in a Rs 2 crore extortion case allegedly linked to the murder of Beed district’s sarpanch Santosh Deshmukh. (ANI)
