The dust has not yet settled on the offensive between Maharashtra Navnirman Sena President Raj Thackeray and Sharad Pawar, and opposition leader Devendra Fadnavis has accused the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) boss of appeasement politics and polarising society on communal basis.

Fadnavis posted a 14-tweet thread on Thursday to level allegations and substantiate them by providing web links to the material he based his statements on. Early this week, Thackeray accused Pawar for the proliferation of caste politics in Maharashtra. The NCP chief came out with a strong rebuttal on Wednesday, calling MNS the BJP’s Team-B. Politics has been charged up ever since.  
   
Fadnavis began his attack with Pawar’s view against abrogation of article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir. “On one hand, we are celebrating the birth anniversary of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar ji, who was against the inclusion of #Article370 granting special status to Jammu & Kashmir. But look what is being said going against the wishes & values of Dr.Ambedkar ji!” he wrote, adding that Pawar’s statements about a movie The Kashmir Files weren’t surprising. The film doesn’t suit the pseudo secular agenda (of Pawar), he stated further.
