SHARAD POWER PLAYED A DOUBLE GAME WITH ME: DEVENDER FADNAVIS

Mumbai, June 30, 2023 – In a shocking turn of events, Devender Fadnavis, the former Chief Minister of Maharashtra, has accused senior politician Sharad Pawar of playing a double game and betraying him during a crucial political crisis. Fadnavis, who was addressing a press conference today, revealed that Pawar had promised support but ultimately worked against him, causing the downfall of his government.

Devender Fadnavis, a senior leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), had served as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra from 2014 to 2019 before his government fell due to a lack of majority. During his tenure, Fadnavis had relied on the support of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) led by Sharad Pawar to maintain his government.

However, in a shocking revelation, Fadnavis claimed that Pawar had played a double game, assuring him of support while secretly plotting against his government. Fadnavis alleged that Pawar had been in touch with opposition leaders and was actively trying to engineer defections within the BJP to destabilize his government.

“Sharad Pawar played a dangerous game of betrayal and political maneuvering with me. He assured me of his party’s support, but behind closed doors, he was conspiring against us,” Fadnavis stated during the press conference. “Pawar’s actions were a clear violation of the trust we had placed in him.”

Fadnavis further claimed that he had discovered evidence of Pawar’s involvement in orchestrating defections within the BJP, leading to the resignation of several party members and subsequent loss of majority. He stated that Pawar’s ulterior motive was to install a coalition government with the support of other opposition parties.

The allegations made by Fadnavis have sent shockwaves through the political landscape of Maharashtra, as Sharad Pawar is considered one of the most influential and respected politicians in the state. Pawar has held several key positions in his political career, including Chief Minister of Maharashtra and Minister of Defense at the central government level.

In response to Fadnavis’ allegations, Sharad Pawar called them baseless and politically motivated. In a statement issued by his party, the NCP, Pawar stated, “These allegations are nothing but an attempt to tarnish my reputation and divert attention from the failures of the BJP government. The truth will prevail, and the people of Maharashtra will see through these political games.”

The political fallout from these accusations is expected to be significant, with both the BJP and the NCP engaging in a war of words. The opposition parties in Maharashtra have called for an independent inquiry to investigate the claims made by Fadnavis.

As the political drama unfolds, Maharashtra finds itself in a state of uncertainty, with questions being raised about the trustworthiness of political alliances and the integrity of its leaders. Only time will tell how this controversy will impact the political landscape of the state and the fortunes of the involved parties.
