BJP has once again become aggressive on the issue of senior NCP leader Nawab Malik in Maharashtra. State Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis has said that we cannot sit with Nawab Malik. Explaining the reason for this, he said that Nawab Malik, who is accused of treason, cannot be seated with him. Devendra Fadnavis has also written a letter to the state’s Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar in this regard.
This letter of Devendra Fadnavis has created a new stir in the politics of the state. The most important thing is that Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has also joined Fadnavis’s tune. Eknath Shinde has said that we stand by our previous stand regarding Nawab Malik. There are serious allegations against Nawab Malik. The court has not yet acquitted him. He is currently out of jail due to health reasons. He said that it is not right for Nawab Malik to sit on the benches of the ruling parties.
Shinde supported Fadnavis
A new dilemma has arisen before Ajit Pawar after similar statements of the Chief Minister and his associate Deputy Chief Minister came to light. Chief Minister Shinde has said that how the constituent parties run their parties can be their own matter, but our goal of national interest and public interest should be the same. We are united on this issue. Along with this, he has appealed to Ajit Pawar that he will take appropriate stand.
Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has also strongly criticized the opposition on the entire issue. He has said that the opposition does not have the moral right to say anything on the issue of Nawab Malik. When Nawab Malik was in jail, there was a Mahavikas Aghadi government.
Nawab Malik retaliated
Nawab Malik has also expressed his reaction in the whole matter. He said that Devendra Fadnavis, who has written such a letter, has a dual role. Nawab Malik raised the question that how does BJP form an alliance with PDP and Mehbooba Mufti to form the government in Jammu and Kashmir. He said that BJP creates narrative as per its convenience. Today there are many leaders in the House who are accused of corruption, so how is he running the government with them.
