While Parambir Singh has said that 'he sent that email with his own ID'. BJP is trying to pressure the Maharashtra government on these allegations.

But talking to the press about this, Jayant Patil, a minister in Maharashtra government and state president of NCP, said, "This letter is a response to the stern steps taken by the Chief Minister and the Home Minister of Maharashtra. There is no question that the Home Minister Resign or replace them."
