A family tragedy in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar saw the deaths of Muralidhar Chandwade, his wife Sangeeta, and their 19-year-old son Kunal after falling from Khawalya mountain. The incident followed ongoing family disputes, including Muralidhar's renewed contact with his parents after 17 years and tensions between him and his wife. Kunal reportedly wished for his parents to reconcile. Accounts from both sides highlight longstanding familial conflicts and recent separations preceding the fall.
