Fadnavis govt goes into damage control mode as land deal is scrapped, trouble still mounts for Ajit Pawar

Mumbai, 7/11: In a damage-control exercise, the Devendra Fadnavis-led Maha Yuti government on Maharashtra on Friday scrapped the controversial illegal land deal in Pune involving Ajit Pawar’s son Parth Pawar even as troubles continue to mount for the Deputy Chief Minister with the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi rooting for his resignation or dismissal.

The land deal has been scrapped…all the transactions have been cancelled,” Ajit, who is the NCP President, told reporters hours after he met Fadnavis, who too has come under fire from the opposition parties.
