My demand to the Maharashtra government is that the investigation of the Health Department, MHADA and TET scam should be handed over to the CBI. Only after the CBI investigation is done, the strings related to the ministry in these scams will open, otherwise another case of recovery will be buried in the police file again. My request to the Chief Minister is that if you want to catch the real culprits who are playing with the future of lakhs of students, then hand this matter over to the CBI. The whole truth will come out.
