'Police Busy Making Money?': Maharashtra Minister Slams Cops After Attack On Home
The minister has levelled serious allegations against the city's Police Commissioner, accusing him of focusing on his next posting rather than his responsibilities.
Maharashtra Social Justice Minister Sanjay Shirsat strongly criticized the State police for their security lapses following a late-night incident outside his Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar residence. On Thursday evening, around 11 p.m., three intoxicated youths allegedly created a disturbance outside the minister's home and threw broken liquor bottles towards the property when confronted. Shirsat claimed that the youths had attempted to attack his residence, a claim he deemed serious enough to warrant police attention.
The minister, who serves as the Guardian Minister for his district, expressed frustration with the police's handling of the situation, stating that they should have taken notice of the potential threat to his home. Shirsat vowed to address the matter with Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. In response to the incident, the police have arrested all three accused individuals, and ongoing processes include their interrogation and the filing of a formal complaint.
