The three-party coalition in Maharashtra should be renamed as the "Maharashtra Vasooli (extortion) Aghadi", the BJP said after former Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh's extortion allegations against state Home Minister Anil Deshmukh.

The comment came in the wake of allegations made by former Mumbai top cop Param Bir Singh against Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh.
