New Delhi, October 26: Maharashtra Congress President Nana Patole has accused the BJP-led Centre of misusing Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in connection with the drugs on cruise case involving Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan.

Speaking to ANI on Monday, the Congress leader said, "In Sameer Wankhede case, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is misusing NCB. They are extorting money too. Rs 21,000 crore worth drugs were caught at Gujarat's Mundra port but no action was taken in this by the government. They didn't probe that case. They want to drown all the youth of the country in drugs. The way the Centre had made a system to destroy the country and the way they are misusing NCB, the BJP-ruled Centre has to answer." Also Read | JioPhone Next New Specifications Teased Online.

Asked about cricketer Mohammed Shami being targeted on social media after India's defeat in the ICC World Cup match against Pakistan he said, "Players play for the country and they are selected properly. If our players are divided on the basis of religion, then it is not fair."

Nana Patole further said that the All India Congress Committee (AICC) meeting will be held on Tuesday and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra taking the meeting.

"Tomorrow is our AICC meeting and Priyanka will be taking the meeting. The AICC general secretaries, in-charges and secretaries across the country will join this meeting," he added.
