A nephew of the famous industrialist Narendra Mittal was beaten by unidentified bikers during the Diwali festival in the Jalna district of Maharashtra. Sharing the assault video, Nationalist Congress Party–Sharad Pawar (NCP-SP) MLA Rohit Pawar questioned the law and order of the state and criticised the Devendra Fadnavis-led Mahayuti government.
NCP-SP leader Rohit Pawar shared CCTV footage of the incident on X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, "Once upon a time, Maharashtra, which was number one in law and order, is now proven to have reached the top spot in corruption and deteriorating law and order based on the increasing crime incidents in the state."
He described the CCTV video, saying that despite the woman screaming, pleading with the assailants to leave him, they continued to assault him. Pawar blames the government and the state home ministry-led by CM Devendra Fadanvis, for the incident.
"For how many more days will the people of the state have to live with their lives in their fists?" he asked.
