Bombay High Court has ordered a CBI enquiry against Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh, however now former Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis demanded his resignation.
“The Court has directed CBI to conduct a preliminary probe within 15 days against Anil Deshmukh and proceed on the basis of findings. Given HC’s decision, he should resign,” Fadnavis was quoted as saying by news agency.
Earlier in the day, the Bombay High Court ordered the CBI chief to conduct a preliminary enquiry into the corruption allegations levelled against him by former Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh.
A bench of Chief Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice Girish Kulkarni while terming the case to be “extraordinary and unprecedented” asked the CBI director to complete its enquiry within 15 days.
The judges clarified that the CBI must not register any FIR immediately since the Maharashtra government has already set up a “high-level committee” to deal with the matter.
