Prominent lawyer Ujjwal Nikam, nominated to Rajya Sabha by President Droupadi Murmu, recalled receiving a personal call from PM Modi, who warmly asked, “Should I speak in Hindi or Marathi?” during their conversation.
The Maharashtra government reappointed Ujjwal Nikam as Special Public Prosecutor for ongoing cases, despite opposition from Congress leader Nana Patole, citing potential bias due to his former BJP affiliation. Nikam, known for high-profile cases like the 1993 Mumbai blasts and 26/11 attacks, continues to be entrusted with sensitive cases, emphasizing professional capabilities over political affiliations.
