Mumbai News LIVE Updates: BJP intensifies moves to corner Dy CM Ajit Pawar after irrigation scam remarks
Tensions within the Mahayuti alliance have escalated as senior BJP leaders, including state President Ravindra Chavan and Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule, launched a coordinated verbal offensive against Deputy Chief Minister and NCP chief Ajit Pawar. The confrontation signals a strategic move by the BJP to corner Dy CM Pawar ahead of the high-stakes Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation elections, where he is pitted against the BJP. In a provocative statement, Ajit Pawar remarked that he is currently part of a government alongside those who once accused him of a Rs 70,000 crore irrigation scam. This gave the BJP ammunition to target him. The friction originated from the decision regarding the upcoming municipal elections. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis previously announced that the Mahayuti alliance would not contest the Pune polls together, forcing Ajit Pawar&rsquo;s faction of the NCP to fight independently. Consequently, Ajit Pawar formed a local alliance with Sharad Pawar&rsquo;s NCP in both Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad.
