Political Turmoil in Maharashtra: Nana Patole Calls NCP-SCP Allegations a 'Drama'

Maharashtra Congress President Nana Patole addresses the ongoing controversy following Sachin Waze's allegations against NCP-SCP leaders. Patole promises an investigation if Maha Vikas Aghadi forms the government. Party's Working President Supriya Sule and Anil Deshmukh defend their positions, questioning the credibility of Waze.

Maharashtra Congress President Nana Patole has described the ongoing political accusations in the state as a 'drama,' following allegations made by dismissed police officer Sachin Waze against Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and Shiv Sena (SCP) leaders Anil Deshmukh and Jayant Patil. Patole emphasized that once the Maha Vikas Aghadi coalition forms the government, they will initiate a thorough investigation into the matter.

Responding to Waze's allegations, NCP's Working President and Member of Parliament (MP) Supriya Sule questioned the timing, suggesting that the allegations surfaced conveniently ahead of upcoming elections. Separately, Anil Deshmukh dismissed the claims against him, pointing out Waze's criminal background and alleging a political conspiracy orchestrated by Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.

Deshmukh reiterated that Waze, accused in the 2021 Antilia bomb scare and multiple murder cases, lacks credibility. He claimed that Fadnavis is using Waze for political gains, and asserted that the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has already gathered sufficient evidence against him. The controversy continues to unfold with promises of future investigations by a potential Maha Vikas Aghadi government.
