Varsha Raut has been summoned for questioning in the case, which involves an alleged loan fraud.
Mumbai:
Agencies like Enforcement Directorate are not important as they are increasingly being used in a political power game, Shiv Sena s Sanjay Raut said a day after his wife was summoned again for questioning in the PMC bank fraud case. Declaring that political battles should be fought face to face , he said, I have spoken to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and the Shiv Sena will answer them in its own way. No need to panic . The importance of ED, CBI (Central Bureau of Investigation) or the Income Tax Department is decreasing. Earlier, when this agency took any action, it seemed that there was something serious. But for the last few years, it seems action from this agency happens when a political party is taking out its anger, Mr Raut told the media today.
