BJP Leader Claims Rohit Pawar May Join Congress; Pawar Denies Allegations
BJP MLC Parinay Fuke claimed NCP (SP) MLA Rohit Pawar is considering joining Congress and toured Bhandara-Gondia to please Congress leader Nana Patole. Fuke also said Pawar's ties with NCP (SP) working president Supriya Sule have deteriorated. Pawar denied these claims, accusing Fuke of using his closeness to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to shield BJP members involved in illegal activities and suppress opposition workers. Both leaders exchanged allegations related to political rivalries and farmers' issues in Maharashtra.
