Panaji, Nov 19 (SocialNews.XYZ) Reacting to buzz in Goan political circles about Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) officer Sameer Wankhede being posted to the coastal state as a nodal election officer, Goa opposition party Goa Forward expressed a sense of caution.
"Hope the buzz about Sameer Wankhede moving to Goa as (Election Commission of India) ECI Nodal Officer is untrue," Goa Forward party president Vijai Sardesai said in a statement on Friday.
"If not, is there a move to bust someone during the election? Or conduct a midnight raid? Or even an attempt to set up an Election Control Bureau? Goans are watching," Sardesai also said.
Wankhede has been caught in the eye of a storm following the arrest of Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan at a posh cruise party last month.
Nationalist Congress Party leader and a Minister in the Maharashtra Vikas Aghadi government Nawab Malik has accused NCB zonal director Wankhede of alleged extortion. However, Wankhede has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.
