Maharashtra Congress chief Nana Patole has alleged that the Eknath Shinde-led state government dropped charges against retired IPS officer Param Bir Singh as a reward for maligning the image of the previous Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government. The state government dropped the charges against Singh, a former Mumbai police commissioner, following a ruling by the Central Administrative Tribunal.
Speaking to reporters here on Tuesday, Patole alleged that Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and state Home Minister Devendra Fadnavis "deliberately weakened the case and ensured that the IPS officer would walk free on technical grounds." Singh defamed the MVA government of the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress by accusing the then home minister Anil Deshmukh of corruption, Patole said.
