NIA takes over Koregaon-Bhima Case without the state's permission: Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh
Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh claims NIA takes over Koregaon-Bhima Case without the state's permission.
Maharashtra Housing Minister Jitendra Awhad, who was just as angered by the "unconstitutional action", sought to remind the centre that law and order is a state subject. "The direct action of the centre to take over the Koregaon-Bhima case amounts to insulting the constitution. The constitution clearly speaks about the relation between the centre and the state. Defence goes to centre while law and order come to the state. When you take over certain subjects of a state, you overstep on its constitutional rights," he said.
