Shockwaves from former Dy CM Ajit Pawar’s plane crash death persist, as NCP (Ajit faction) spokesperson Amol Mitkari directly appealed to Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis for a high-level inquiry during a key Tuesday huddle. Doubts swirl around the ill-fated VSR flight’s state on January 28.
Emerging from the discussion, Mitkari addressed media throngs: ‘NCP activists united in urging the CM for answers. That flight was a wreck—no place for a leader like Ajit Pawar. High-level investigation is non-negotiable.’ Fadnavis, while citing CID efforts, acknowledged the pervasive grief demanding more.
The personal dimension struck deep—Pawar was Fadnavis’s Mahayuti bedrock and friend. ‘Deeply affected, the CM pledged escalated probes and brotherly support to Sunetra Pawar. The veil on this demise must lift.’
Mitkari’s testimonials intensify intrigue: ‘Shared 12 flights with him; Ajit obsessed over safety—weather checks, takeoff assessments, cancellations when dicey. How did he board peril?’
Sharad Pawar’s initial comments drew measured response: ‘Spoken amid crisis, post his son’s tragedy, to avert turmoil. As a statesman, it fits—but truth overrides now.’
Mitkari’s forthright stance galvanizes public sentiment, framing the inquiry as vital for healing and reform. In Maharashtra’s charged atmosphere, this could unearth systemic lapses, honoring Pawar’s legacy through unrelenting pursuit of justice.
