Kirit Somaiya posts names of Thackeray govt.’s ‘Dirty Dozen scamsters’; says more will be arrested after Mr. Malik
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will not sit still until Maharashtra Minister and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Nawab Malik tendered his resignation, said BJP State President Chandrakant Patil while accusing Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray of ‘compromising’ and failing to act with the firmness that his father, the late Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray had shown at the time of the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts.
Mr. Patil, along with BJP leader Kirit Somaiya, was leading BJP activists who were protesting in Mumbai against the ‘Maha Vikas Aghadi’ government (of the Shiv Sena, the NCP and the Congress) in calling for Mr. Malik’s resignation following the latter’s arrest by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a money laundering case which allegedly had linkages to underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and those convicted in the 1993 Mumbai blasts.
