Maharashtra Congress Chief Nana Patole on Friday attacked Chief Minister (CM) Devendra Fadnavis for his allegations that several organisations associated with Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra were undermining the state and democracy, and promoting "Urban Naxalism."

"Congress is never involved in any anti-social activity. Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi sacrificed their lives for the nation and the Constitution of India. Rahul Gandhi received a lot of support in the Bharat Jodo Yatra and he united the nation...I wrote a letter to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis demanding a list of the organisations," Patole said.

In the letter, the Maharashtra Congress Chief also called for transparency and demanded CM Fadnavis to provide a list of the "urban Naxal" organisations and their heads. who allegedly participated in the Bharat Jodo Yatra, news agency ANI reported.
