Former Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis, has been accused of approving key decisions during the election communication period in violation of the model code of conduct. The Maharashtra Chief Secretary has filed an affidavit in the Nagpur bench of Bombay High Court stating that Fadnavis gave the green light to major policy decisions when he was only the caretaker Chief Minister. The affidavit was filed in response to a petition challenging Fadnavis’ election from Nagpur South West constituency in 2019. The petition alleges that Fadnavis used his position as Chief Minister to push through crucial decisions that could have influenced voters during the election period. The High Court has directed the Chief Secretary to submit a detailed report on the decisions taken by Fadnavis during his tenure as caretaker Chief Minister. This development has sparked a political controversy in Maharashtra, with opposition parties accusing Fadnavis of misusing his power for political gains. The case is expected to have far-reaching implications on the political landscape of the state. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
