Overview

  • A Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been established to investigate allegations that the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government conspired to frame Devendra Fadnavis and Eknath Shinde in false cases.
  • The SIT is led by Joint Commissioner of Police Satyanarayan Choudhary and includes senior law enforcement officials from Mumbai and the state police force.
  • The probe follows claims by BJP leader Pravin Darekar, who presented evidence, including alleged sting operation footage, suggesting a plan to arrest Fadnavis and Shinde during the MVA tenure.
  • The SIT has been directed to submit its findings within 30 days, with provisions for legislators to add further complaints during this period.
  • Opposition leaders from the MVA coalition have criticized the move as politically motivated, questioning its timing and intent after the BJP-led government has been in power for over three years.
