Battle won against Fadnavis :)

On the day of retirement that Fadnavis arrested my father, he was also supposed to get his promotion. On the last day of service.

Even after the govt. gave him a clean chit after 4 years, Fadnavis kept refusing he’d gotten a promotion.

I always knew that the Governor of Maharashtra had announced dad’s promotion. Shockingly, the file went “missing” from the Home Ministry.

Not content with falsely torturing him for 4 years, Fadnavis & BJP kept denying him his promotion & rank.

I have pursued this missing file thru RTI for the last 6 months. The Home Ministry stalled it. The CM’s office stalled it.

Today, when Fadnavis is out of office, I received an RTI response from the Ministry with a copy of the “missing” Governor’s order from 2015.

The Maharashtra govt. now has no option but to restore my father’s honor and give his rank and promotion back to him.

You lost Fadnavis. I won.

But this isn’t over.

I won’t be done till you’ve compensated my father, apologized & told us why you did what you did.
