 "Eknath Khadse")
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday said that a decision would soon be taken regarding the fate of Maharashtra Revenue Minister Eknath Khadse in the party. The development happens as he face charges of using black money in the land deal of Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC).
"The way the matter has been brought to light in the media, some facts can be highlighted. With new facts out, Eknath Khadse is under a cloud of suspicion and the party is sure to take a decision soon," former Mumbai police commissioner and now BJP leader Satyapal Singh told ANI.
However, he asserted that Khadse, a prominent leader, should introspect his deeds soon.
According to reports, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has been summoned to the national capital by party chief Amit Shah to discuss the matter.
A delegation of the Congress leaders on Wednesday met the Maharashtra Governor, Vidyasagar Rao and demanded Khadse's resignation over the land deal and his alleged involvement in calls made to gangster Dawood Ibrahim in Pakistan.
However, Khadse had earlier denied changing reservation of the MIDC plot at Bhosari, as acquisition process was in progress.
