Anil Deshmukh has been accused of misusing his position during the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) regime to commit financial irregularities. He was also jailed in connection with a Rs 100 crore extortion case. Now Anil Deshmukh has made a big allegation in this case, targeting the BJP.

"There was pressure from the Bharatiya Janata Party leaders to make a compromise. I refused to compromise, which is why false allegations were made against me by Param Bir Singh, and actions were taken against me. This is absolutely true. In the manner I was being pressured, I straightforwardly stated that I wouldn't engage in any compromise whatsoever, and the very next day, a raid was conducted on me. And actions were taken against me," Anil Deshmukh said today.
