A week after Chief Minister Eknath Shinde faced corruption charges, the Opposition levelled graft charges against Agriculture Minister Abdul Sattar and demanded he be sacked. Leader of the Opposition Ajit Pawar raised the matter in the Assembly on Monday and Ambadas Danve took it up in the upper house.

In the first allegation, Sattar has been accused of allotting grazing land of 37 acres to a private person. “The Bombay High Court has passed strictures against Sattar because the allotment is illegal. The land costs Rs 150 crore. There is evidence against the minister,” Pawar added.
