Eknath Khadse

The Bombay High Court is fast losing patience with the state when it comes to the alleged land grabbing by former revenue minister Eknath Khadse. Threatening to intervene soon, the court observed yesterday: "Registering an FIR is a statutory duty, it's the first step in the legal process. You have to see whether the minister has misused power or not. On March 7, we will give a detailed order on the matter."
