 Summary of this article
- Opposition leaders seek action against ministers and demand scrutiny of their alleged links with Kharat, including examination of call records.
- Shiv Sena (UBT) calls for an inquiry and removal of several ministers, while questioning the government’s role in enabling superstition-linked activities.
- The state government says the matter is under investigation, maintaining that photographs with Kharat do not necessarily prove direct involvement.
The Opposition on Saturday called for action against Maharashtra leaders, including ministers, linked to Ashok Kharat, a self-styled godman arrested on rape charges. This statement was made a day after Rupali Chakankar, a leader of the Nationalist Congress Party, resigned as chairperson of the Maharashtra State Commission for Women.
The Opposition party, Shiv Sena (UBT), said that Rupali Chakankar should be made a co-accused in the case against Kharat because of her association with the godman. Kharat is said to have many political and social connections.
The Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Sunetra Pawar, said that she had sent Rupali Chakankar’s resignation to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis for acceptance. This resignation was given on Friday.
Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray criticised the state government over its alleged links with Kharat, noting that Maharashtra has a law against superstition. He said it was troubling that those responsible for enforcing it appeared connected to Kharat’s activities, adding that action should extend beyond Kharat to his political associates.
