Claim: Sharad Pawar made Ajmal Kasab's lawyer, Majeed Memon, a Rajya Sabha MP, while the BJP awarded Ujjwal Nikam, the prosecutor who secured Kasab's death sentence, an MP ticket.
Fact-check: Former Rajya Sabha MP Majeed Memon was not Ajmal Kasab's lawyer - FACTLY
Verdict: majeed memon, a notable criminal lawyer in india, was not associated with the ajmal kasab trial. he served as a rajya sabha mp from the ncp from april 2014 to april 2020. in 2022, majeed memon quit the ncp and joined the trinamool congress . the bjp has allotted the mumbai north central mp ticket to ujjwal nikam, the public prosecutor in the mumbai 26/11 terror attack trial. hence the claim made in the post is misleading.
