The Maharashtra government has initiated an investigation into allegations of irregularities in a high-profile land transaction in Pune, involving a company co-owned by Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar's son, Parth Pawar.
The deal, valued at Rs 300 crore, concerns the sale of a 40-acre government-owned plot to Amadea Enterprises LLP. Opposition parties claim the land's actual worth is Rs 1800 crore, sparking a political controversy.
A committee, headed by Additional Chief Secretary (Revenue) Vikas Kharge, will examine possible unauthorized document registrations and estimate any financial losses to the state exchequer. The findings are due within a month, aiming to hold accountable those responsible for procedural violations and suggest preventive measures.
