Maharashtra's opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Wednesday demanded the resignation of a Shiv Sena minister accusing him of allegedly abetting the suicide of a youth in Ahmednagar on October 30.

BJP spokesperson Keshav Upadhye told media persons that youth Prateek Kale, who hanged himself recently on a tree, had reportedly named Soil and Water Conservation Minister Shankarrao Gadakh among those responsible for his extreme step.
