Maharashtra BJP chief Chandrakant Patil on Friday said the Enforcement Directorate's action against Jarandeshwar Sahkari Sugar Karkhana, located in Chimangaon-Koregaon in Satara district, was just the "beginning" as the purchase of sugar and textiles mills with the help of Maharashtra State Co-operative Bank funds was under the radar of Central agencies.

The ED on Thursday attached the mill under an anti-money laundering law in connection with the alleged Maharashtra State Cooperative Bank (MSCB) scam. Patil also said he would approach Union Home Minister Amit Shah to start an inquiry into such transactions where mills worth several crore rupees were bought at throwaway prices.
