IL&FS Scam: The Maharashtra Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) president and MLA Jayant Patil have received a new summons from the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for interrogation in connection with a case involving suspected irregularities relating to Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services (IL&FS).
Patil is regarded as Sharad Pawar, the leader of the NCP,’s close ally. On May 22, Patil has been called to appear.
On May 12, the ED issued the first summons for his attendance, but he had requested a 10-day postponement due to some personal and professional commitments. Patil, a seven-term member and former minister of finance and the home, is also the NCP’s state president.
