Maharashtra Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule of the BJP urged Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar to cease criticizing the BJP, warning against revisiting past political issues. Bawankule cited a pre-election agreement among Mahayuti alliance partners to avoid mutual criticism, even when contesting separately. He noted that Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis adheres to this, while Pawar has targeted BJP leadership. Bawankule also commented on the pending irrigation scam case, stating the truth will emerge from the court's verdict.
