I knew nothing about this deal. I spoke to CM and told him that even though my relatives are involved in this deal, I requested him to initiate an inquiry,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">Ajit Pawar instructed all IAS officers not to entertain any person who comes with some work citing his reference, if that is against the rules. \u201cLet the inquiry proceed, which will give all of us a clear picture about who made calls, who put pressure on me regarding this case.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">\u201cI was not aware of this deal. I checked with my department officers whether they put any pressure and supported this deal, but no one from my office did that,&#8221; the deputy CM said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">Ajit Pawar had distanced himself from the matter on Thursday amid a fierce political storm over alleged land irregularities linked to his son, saying that he had made it clear to all officers that he won\u2019t support any wrong actions by anyone citing his name to get their work done<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">He further asserted that he is the person who works within rules and within the framework of the law.

What has shocked many even more is that the stamp duty paid on the deal was reportedly only Rs 500.<\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\">The issue prompted a political uproar, with Opposition leaders demanding a wider investigation into what they call a \u201cclear case of corruption and misuse of power.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"10\" class=\"story_para_10\">Fadnavis ordered swift action. Pune Tehsildar Suryakant Yewale was suspended hours after the matter became public.
