This is pertaining to NDTV report on new CWC. NDTV in its report New Congress Working Committee announced among writes
Those dropped include Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithvi Raj Chavan, Law Minister Veerappa Moily, and Vilasrao Deshmukh who served as chief minister of Maharashtra but was removed for his links to the Adarsh Society scam - flats in a Mumbai building intended for war widows and veterans were allotted to politicians, bureaucrats, and retired army officers, who rigged permissions for the building's construction in an area that is highly sensitive because of its proximity to important defence facilities.
It seems that NDTV is trying to portray dropping of Vilasrao Deshmukh as a great moral act and by narrating his wrong doing is trying to imply that he was dropped due to his wrong doings
What NDTV forgets to mention is the in January this year same party (with the blessing of same Sonia Gandhi) appointed Vilasrao Deshmukh as cabinet minister for Rural Development with additional charge of Panchayati Raj
Lastly, It may be a minor detail for NDTV that it was not Vilasrao Deshmukh who was removed Adarsh scam. It was Ashok Chavan. Vilasrao Deshmukh was removed for goofing up 2611.
