Former Maharashtra minister and NCP leader, Dhananjay Munde, continues to occupy the 'Satpuda' bungalow in Mumbai, months after resigning from his cabinet position.

Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis confirmed awareness of the situation on Monday, yet is unsure about the fines imposed on Munde for overstaying at the official residence.

Senior NCP leader Chhagan Bhujbal, appointed after Munde's resignation, is left without an official residence due to Munde's continued occupancy, despite a government order transferring the bungalow to Bhujbal.
