A day ahead of the polling in the state, the Maharashtra Police on Tuesday (November 19) registered an FIR against the BJP’s state general secretary Vinod Tawde and party candidate from Nallasopara Assembly seat Rajan Naik over accusations of distributing money to voters in Palghar.
According to the information released, the FIR was filed after the EC lodged a complaint against Tawde and Rajan Naik with Maharashtra police, who were allegedly found involved in distributing cash to voters. The authorities stated, ”They are taking action against whatever happened in the hotel. The press conference held on the premises was also illegal. We will take action as per law.”
