A day after the Enforcement Directorate (ED) attached assets worth ₹11.15 crore belonging to the wife of Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut, National Congress Party (NCP) president Sharad Pawar met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday.

Mr. Pawar called on Mr. Modi along with NCP’s Lok Sabha member from Lakshwadeep, P.P. Mohammad Faizal, who raised issues relating to his constituency.
