Activist Demands Resignation Amid Mundhwa Land Deal Controversy

Activist Anjali Damania calls for the resignation of Deputy CM Ajit Pawar over a land deal involving his son's firm, which allegedly committed fraud by obtaining government land without paying stamp duty. Damania threatens to escalate the issue to Union Home Minister Amit Shah.

In a bold move, activist Anjali Damania has demanded the resignation of Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar related to a controversial land deal involving his son's firm. The Mundhwa land case has sparked significant scrutiny due to allegations of fraudulent transactions.

Damania addressed reporters in Mumbai, emphasizing her immediate demand for Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to act. She stated that should Fadnavis not respond accordingly, she will take her appeal directly to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, with whom she plans a meeting. Damania has provided Shah's office with crucial evidence linked to the land deal.

Amadea Enterprises LLP, the firm linked to Ajit Pawar's son Parth, is at the center of the controversy, accused of bypassing stamp duty on a Rs 300-crore land deal. With political stakes high, Ajit Pawar has vowed to retract the deal. In response, Damania has called for a new and impartial Special Investigation Team to investigate the matter thoroughly.
