The Bombay High Court granted bail to businessperson Sheetal Tejwani in a Pune land deal case involving alleged irregularities linked to a firm associated with NCP leader Parth Pawar. The case concerns the sale of Mahar Watan land in Mundhwa, valued at around Rs 1,800 crore but reportedly acquired for Rs 300 crore without mandatory state approval. The court imposed conditions including a ban on entering Pune revenue district. A Maharashtra government panel cleared Pawar of criminal liability in February.
