School Leaving Certificates shows Sameer Wankhede is Muslim: Nawab Malik
In the ongoing saga between political super-snoop versus narcotics super-sleuth, NCP Minister Nawab Malik on Thursday said that NCB officer Sameer Wankhede’s School Leaving Certificates (SLC) show him to be a ‘Muslim’, and he had allegedly threatened his ex-wife’s family of dire consequences if they spoke out.
Continuing the crusade questioning how the NCB officer had allegedly produced a fake caste certificate to land a plum central job in reserved category, the Nationalist Congress Party National Spokesperson released the purported School Leaving Certificates of Wankhede when he left one school to join another due to ‘change of residence’ status, some 25 years ago.
The first is from St. Paul High School Dadar, which he left on June 27, 1986 as a Class 2 student a year after admission (June 13, 1985), to join the St. Joseph School, Wadala, owing to shifting to a new address, both in south-central Mumbai.
The two handwritten certificates — as was the norm in those days — show identical details, including the pupil’s name as ‘Sameer Dawood Wankhede’, DoB ’14-12-1979′ in words too and religion as ‘Muslim’.
“I have already submitted these and other details to the Hon’ Bombay High Court, which will pass its interim orders later today. Wankhede has been indulging in frauds and is an expert in creating ‘fake certificates’,” Malik said.
The Wankhede family countered Malik by producing purported SLCs and a 2021 computer-generated birth certificate of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation which shows the name as Sameer, mother’s name as Zahedbano and father as Dnyandeo Kachruji Wankhede.
“Half info shared by people with evil thoughts to defame Sameer Wankhede. There was an error made. Later this was duly rectified by Mr. DNYANDEV with all legal formalities and procedures in 1989. All the documents were accepted and verified by the school principal then and now too,” said the officer’s wife Kranti Redkar-Wankhede, posting the purportedly corrected SLCs, challenging the ones given by Malik — with a huge 3-year gap.
Dismissing these contentions, Malik pointed out that the BMC has scanned all the original old handwritten documents and the SLCs of the two schools are from those electronic records.
Malik’s court affidavit said that he had verified the birth records of Wankhede which is maintained by the BMC E Ward register at Sr. No. 3744 for the concerned year.
“Besides the Bombay High Court, I have sent all the documents to the Mumbai and Maharashtra Police chiefs, the Opposition Bharatiya Janata Party and demanded a detailed investigation,” Malik said.
The minister further claimed that Wankhede had threatened his first wife, Dr. Shabana Quraishi, trapped her cousin brother in a fake drugs case and warned that he would do the same for her entire family if they spoke out against him.
The NCP Minister reiterated that Wankhede — an officer of IRS-2008 batch, currently with NCB Mumbai — will definitely lose his job which he got on the basis of furnishing such ‘fraudulent documents’, and promised to make more revelations to unravel the truth.

West Bengal Assembly Election Results 2026: ‘BJP Win Will Curb Infiltration, Terror,’ Says CM Devendra Fadnavis; Credits PM Modi For Surge

Mumbai, May 4: Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday said the BJP’s victory in West Bengal would help save the country from infiltrators and terrorist activities, asserting that people had reposed strong faith in the party and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Citing the BJP’s performance in Bengal, Assam, and Puducherry, he said 78 per cent of the country is now ruled by the BJP-led NDA.
The BJP has won six seats and is leading in 196 seats, while the TMC has bagged one as the counting of votes in the West Bengal Assembly polls progressed, indicating a saffron surge in the state.
“The victory in West Bengal will save our country from infiltrators, terrorist activities, and attacks. The way the Mamata Banerjee-led government functioned would ensure infiltrators from Bangladesh and send them across the country. These people would take away our jobs and pose a threat to our security, sovereignty, and unity,” Fadnavis said.
Referring to his campaign during the Bengal polls, Fadnavis said he was told that locals considered the BJP an outsider party, to which he responded that the party was founded by Shyama Prasad Mukherjee and had deep roots.
He claimed the BJP has secured a two-thirds majority in the state, reflecting people’s trust in Modi.
Fadnavis said there was a growing trust factor for the BJP and PM Modi across states such as West Bengal, Puducherry, and Assam, adding that the party would bring West Bengal out of “bad rule”.
He criticised the erstwhile governments of Congress and the Left, calling the last 15 years under Banerjee the “worst of all” tenures.
He said West Bengal, once the country’s financial hub with Kolkata as its economic capital, had declined due to the previous governments.
“Of the total FDI which our country receives, West Bengal could not even attract half a per cent,” Fadnavis said.
The Chief Minister said West Bengal was once highly industrialised, but nearly 7,000 major industries had left, turning it into a “jungle raj”.
He credited PM Modi’s vision and infrastructure push, including roads and metro projects, for convincing voters about real transformation.
Fadnavis hailed Union Home Minister Amit Shah as a master strategist and also lauded BJP president Nitin Nabin for ensuring a major victory.
He said the Bengal victory was dedicated to BJP workers who were attacked or killed after the previous assembly elections, asserting that the party’s “chariot of victory cannot be stopped”.
Drawing a comparison with Assam, Fadnavis said infiltration and terror activities had stopped after the BJP came to power and that the north-eastern state is now contributing significantly to growth.
“Similarly, West Bengal will be seen as a growth partner of the country in the coming days,” he added.
Fadnavis also thanked the Election Commission for conducting peaceful polls, claiming that no lives were lost.

Mumbai: Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader Abu Asim Azmi has demanded a stay on the notice of illegal eviction of houses from Muslim settlements in Dhuleya and demolition action from Minorities Commission Chairman Pyare Khan.
