NCP (SP) MLA Rohit Pawar has criticised Maharashtra Minister of State Meghana Bordikar after sharing a video allegedly showing her threatening to slap a village official during a public event in Parbhani.
Reacting to the incident, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis downplayed the matter, saying not every remark made by a minister should be blown out of proportion, reported news agency PTI.
Taking to X on Sunday, Rohit Pawar wrote, “Those who play rummy in the Assembly, stash bags of cash, run dance bars, first make mistakes and then try to glorify and celebrate them. Now, the latest addition is a minister threatening an officer during a programme.”
