Don’T Level False Charges, Will Make Audio Tapes Public: Maha DY CM To Anil Deshmukh

(MENAFN- IANS) Mumbai, July 24 (IANS) Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who also holds the Home portfolio, on Wednesday warned the former Home Minister and NCP SP leader Anil Deshmukh that he would not sit quietly if the latter makes false accusations against him.

“Some of Deshmukh's party leaders (NCP united) had given me some audio tapes about him wherein he (Deshmukh) is talking about Sharad Pawar, Uddhav Thackery and Sachin Waze. If Deshmukh continues to level false charges against me, I will make these audio tapes public,” he said while talking to reporters after Deshmukh claimed that Fadnavis had sent someone in the past asking him to make allegations against Uddhav Thackeray, Aditya Thackeray, Ajit Pawar, and Anil Parab.

Fadnavis said that Deshmukh earlier had also made allegations against him but he did not respond as he does not do this kind of politics.“If someone targets me again, I will never leave them,” he said.

He said that the allegations against Deshmukh were made not during the BJP government but they were levelled during the Maha Vikas Aghadi rule.

“Anil Deshmukh is currently on bail in connection with the RS 100 crore extortion case. If someone is setting a narrative by making false charges, they should know that I never speak without proof,” Fadnavis said.
