Maharastra former Home Minister and NCP leader Anil Deshmukh who on Monday resigned from his position is likely to approach the Supreme Court against Bombay High Court's order of preliminary CBI probe into the corruption allegations leveled on him. 

As per the reports, Deshmukh met senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi who would represent him in the apex court. 

Deshmukh's resign came few hours after the Bombay High Court directed to conduct an inquiry within 15 days into the corruption allegations made against him by former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh. The state HC has also directed the officials to register an FIR if any misconduct or any offense found against him.

What happened earlier? 

Last month, former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh wrote an eight-page letter to CM Uddhav Thackeray alleging that Deshmukh had called police officers to his official residence several times in the last few months and had directed now-suspended police officer Sachin Waze to collect Rs 100 crore a month from bars, restaurants, and other establishments in Mumbai.

Deshmukh, however, refuted the allegations leveled on him and had termed as a conspiracy to taint the image of the state government.
