Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Ajit Pawar, recently stirred up controversy during his visit to Tasgaon in Sangli District. He targeted the late former Deputy Chief Minister and Home Minister of Maharashtra, RR Patil, accusing him of trying to implicate him in the Rs 70,000 crore irrigation scam. This has led to criticism, with many questioning why Pawar would make such negative statements about a deceased individual.
Supriya Sule, Baramati MP and daughter of RR Patil, described Pawar’s remarks as insensitive and even apologized to Patil’s wife over the phone. She expressed disappointment at the state of politics and mentioned how the NCP stood united when Pawar was accused of the scam, while questioning the need for investigations if there is nothing to hide.
RR Patil’s daughter, Smita, also expressed her disappointment with Pawar’s statement, mentioning how Pawar had been helpful to their family after her father’s death. Meanwhile, RR Patil’s son, Rohit Patil, is contesting the upcoming Maharashtra Legislative Assembly elections from the Tasgaon constituency, creating a tense political atmosphere in the area.
Overall, Ajit Pawar’s remarks about RR Patil have sparked criticism and controversy, leading to tensions within the NCP factions in Tasgaon.
