Maharashtra govt, Oppn continue to spar over Alandi incident

Mumbai, 12/6:The war of words between the Eknath Shinde-Devendra Fadnavis government and the Maha Vikas Aghadi opposition intensified on Monday over the Alandi lathicharge incident in Pune involving the ‘warkaris’ during their annual pilgrimage to Pandharpur ahead of the Ashadi Ekadashi.

 

The MVA has accused the Shiv Sena-BJP government of making false claims that no lathicharge was resorted to on Sunday.

 

The incident took place when devotees were rushing to gain entry into Sant Dnyaneshwar Maharaj Samadhi Mandir in Alandi town, 22 km from Pune city, during the ceremonial procession.
