The alleged ₹25,000 crore scam in Maharashtra State Cooperative Bank will be heard tomorrow in the Mumbai Sessions Court.  

For the unversed, a clean chit had been given to the directors along with Pawar after submitting the closure report in this case.  However, now the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Mumbai Police is going to conduct an investigation again. In the investigation report of the alleged of the ₹25,000 crore scam of the Shikhar Bank, the  then board of directors had been targeted for blame.  

Circa 2011, the then Board of Directors was dismissed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). An FIR was registered against the then director along with Ajit Pawar. However, the SIT had given a clean chit to 75 people from the State Co-operative Bank, including Pawar.
