Earlier in the day, Patil said, "I am part of the opposition and one needs to face such type of suffering. I never heard the name of the IL&FS in the past, but the ED officials have summoned me to appear before them. I will try to address their queries in the legal framework." He added, "I appeal to the party workers to maintain peace and allow the officials to do their work. I also ask party workers not to be afraid of it"
