Nawab Malik ED Inquiry: A new ruckus has arisen in Maharashtra politics. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is questioning NCP leader and minister in the Uddhav Thackeray government, Nawab Malik. ED officials reached Nawab Malik’s bungalow on Wednesday morning and took him along for questioning. It is alleged that Iqbal Kaskar, brother of underworld don Dawood Ibrahim, has named Nawab Malik in a property deal case. Now Nawab Malik is being questioned in this case. Meanwhile, both Shiv Sena and NCP have started giving it a political colour. NCP chief Sharad Pawar said that the central government is misusing the investigating agencies.
ED questions Nawab Malik, read Sanjay Raut’s reaction
Nawab Malik is a senior leader and cabinet minister of Maharashtra. The way the ED took him from his house is a challenge for the Maharashtra government. Coming to our state, a minister is taken by central agencies. After 2024, you (BJP leaders sitting at the centre) will also be investigated. Keep this in mind.
Nawab Malik questioned by ED, read what Supriya Sule said
Supriya Sule, NCP MP and daughter of Sharad Pawa said, “For many days BJP people were tweeting that ED notices will come against Nawab Malik and Maha Vikas Aghadi. Nawab has taken Malik directly to the ED office without any notice. Don’t know what new politics he has started. This is an insult to Maharashtra.
Similarly, Minister in Maharashtra government and NCP leader Jayant Patil said, “Without prior knowledge, Nawab Malik has been taken to the ED office to ask questions.” He had exposed BJP leaders in the last few days, so now revenge is being taken.
