Nagpur/ Amritsar, Dec 12 (ANI): The Maharashtra
government on Friday ordered a probe into the
multi-million irrigation scam by the Anti-Corruption
Bureau (ACB). Maharashtra chief minister Devendra
Fadnavis justified his government's decision to order
the probe. Fadnavis' Bharatiya Janata Party had made
it an election issue early this year when the state
went to polls. Senior NCP leader Ajit Pawar said the
BJP government was resorting to witch-hunting against
opposition leaders after coming to power. Meanwhile,
the Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC)
chief, Manikrao Thakre, welcomed the probe.
