Pawar defends Malik
NCP supremo Sharad Pawar said that Nawab Malik is being harassed because he has raised his voice against the misuse of central government and central investigative agencies. Pawar said that we had apprehension that such action might be taken as Malik speaks openly.
Pawar said that it is a simple matter. If there is a Muslim activist, then he is linked to Dawood Ibrahim. While he has no connection with the underworld but it is done. Pawar said he too was targeted similarly in the early 1990s when he was the chief minister of Maharashtra and an atmosphere was created against him. 25 years have passed since then.
