Voting for assembly elections is going to be held in Maharashtra on Wednesday 20th November. All political parties gave their full strength for the elections. Meanwhile, on Tuesday, just a day before voting, former Pune IPS officer Ravindranath Patil has made a big allegation against Sharad Pawar faction leader and Lok Sabha MP Supriya Sule and Maharashtra Congress President Nana Patole. He says that both the leaders misappropriated Bitcoin in cryptocurrency fraud. Both are using the cash received in exchange for Bitcoin in the assembly elections.
Now MP Supriya Sule has written a letter to the Election Commission and lodged a complaint on these allegations. He has filed a cyber fraud complaint with the Election Commission of India against Gaurav Mehta and former Pune IPS officer Ravindranath Patil. Sule’s lawyer has said in the letter that a complaint of cyber fraud should be immediately filed against Gaurav Mehta and Ravindranath Patil. He said that both NCP leaders are spreading false information against Supriya Sule.
