Maharashtra BJP ministers have called on opposition parties to refrain from politicizing the tragic death of former Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar in a recent plane crash in Pune district. A thorough investigation is underway, including analysis of the aircraft's black box, to uncover the cause of the accident.

Girish Mahajan, Minister of Water Resources, highlighted the state's mourning and questioned the opposition's narrative connecting Pawar to certain files and his subsequent death. Opposition figures, including Shiv Sena's Sanjay Raut, have made allegations of a mystery surrounding the crash, suggesting Pawar's possession of incriminating files concerning BJP scams.

BJP Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule emphasized the importance of waiting for the probe results, which will clarify the reasons behind the crash. Meanwhile, Raut and other opposition leaders claim Pawar intended to disclose BJP 'scams' and suggest a potential conspiracy linked to his death, pushing for an impartial investigation.
