Accusing the Maharashtra Vikas Aghadi ministers of being at variance with Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray over the implementation of CAA in the state, the BJP on Thursday called for a discussion in the Legislature to know the government's exact position on the issue. The NCP, however, accused the BJP of raising the issue to divert attention from a discussion over a report of the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) on CIDCO's infrastructure works in Navi Mumbai.

NCP national spokesperson Nawab Malik raised suspicion over the alleged Rs 2,500 crore scam in works carried out by the City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) during the previous Devendra Fadnavis-led government in the state. Fadnavis has already dismissed the charges.
