Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) MLA Rohit Pawar, grandnephew of party patriarch Sharad Pawar, appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on January 24 in a money laundering case linked to the alleged Maharashtra State Cooperative Bank scam in 2019.
The 38-year-old first-time legislator from Karjat-Jamkhed strolled from the party office to the ED office in South Mumbai’s Ballard Estate after he met Mr. Sharad Pawar and his daughter, Baramati MP Supriya Sule, seeking their blessings.
Later, Ms. Sule accompanied Mr. Rohit Pawar to the central agency’s office entrance, which was heavily barricaded to prevent the party workers from entering the premises. Ms. Sule handed him over a copy of the Indian Constitution.
