New Delhi, July 18

The Pune Rural Police arrested and detained Manorama Khedkar, mother of the controversial trainee IAS officer Puja Khedkar, in illegal arms case. 

The police arrested Manorama from Mahad near Raigad district, where she was staying in a hotel. 

Manorama Khedkar was seen in a viral video threatening farmers in Mulshi taluka with a pistol. Her husband and former IAS officer Dilip Khedkar allegedly amassed wealth and bought 25 acres of land in Mulshi taluka.

The Khedkar family, however, tried to increase their land holdings by trying to encroach a neighbouring land. An FIR was registered against her at the Paud police station under sections 323, 504, and 506 of the IPC.

The police have filed an FIR against Dilip Khedkar and 5 others in the alleged land grabbing case.
