Eknath Khadse's 75th Birthday Event Draws Leaders Across Political Spectrum
Eknath Khadse is set to celebrate his 75th birthday with a grand event in Muktainagar on August 30, honoring his four-decade political career. Leaders across parties, including Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, NCP chief Sharad Pawar, and Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, have been invited, though Fadnavis' attendance remains unconfirmed.
