“Make those video clippings public”: Anil Deshmukh on proof Deputy CM Fadnavis has against him
Nagpur (Maharashtra) [India], July 25 (ANI): Former Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh spoke in a press conference on Thursday on the proof Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had against him, where he was heard talking about Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar.
Deshmukh said in the press conference, “I have levelled allegations against Devendra Fadnavis that pressure was put on me to speak against Uddhav Thackeray, Aadtiya Thackeray, and Ajit Pawar. I have video recordings to prove it. If someone challenges me, then I will reveal everything.”
Further, he added, “Yesterday Devendra Fadnavis said in a press conference that he has some video clippings of me where I was speaking about Sharad Pawar and Uddhav Thackeray. He should make those video clippings public.”
Earlier today, UBT, Sena leader Sanjay Raut, backed the former Maharashtra Home Minister and said that Anil Deshmukh was sent to jail as a part of a conspiracy, and pressure was put on him to implicate Uddhav Thackeray, Sharad Pawar, and Aaditya Thackeray.
“Anil Deshmukh was sent to jail as a part of a conspiracy. Before he was sent to jail, there was pressure put on him to implicate Uddhav Thackeray, Sharad Pawar, and Aaditya. He was also told that if he did not do this he would be sent to jail. Two years ago, when both of us were in jail, Deshmukh told this. BJP can do such a thing. Many leaders in the BJP have been forced to do such a thing. There is truth in what Anil Deshmukh ji has said,” Sanjay Raut said.
On Wednesday, NCP-SP leader Anil Deshmukh accused Devendra Fadnavis of asking him to write four affidavits against Uddhav Thackeray, Aaditya Thackeray, Ajit Pawar and Anil Parab.
He said, “Three years ago, Devendra Fadnavis sent a man to me and asked me to write four affidavits. I was asked to make written allegations against Uddhav Thackeray, Aaditya Thackeray, Ajit Pawar, and Anil Parab. Devendra Fadnavis sent the affidavits and asked me to sign them. I was told that if I did this, then neither ED nor CBI would come after me.”
Further, Deshmukh added that the ED and CBI were sent after him because he decided not to make any false allegations.
