Maharashtra's law-and-order situation came under fire from Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray, who lambasted authorities for their perceived lack of genuine action in the wake of illicit liquor-related deaths in Pune. Thackeray highlighted a recent video of a Pune car crash suspect celebrating post-jail, questioning the state's approach to criminal behavior.

In an escalating crisis, Shiv Sena (UBT) spokesperson Anand Dubey described the pervasive 'jungleraj' in Maharashtra, alleging criminals operate with impunity. The illicit liquor saga, which has claimed 12 lives, underscores systemic issues, with critics demanding accountability and more rigorous enforcement measures.

Pune's Commissioner of Police Amitesh Kumar stated investigations continue amid post-mortems, with offenders facing severe repercussions. Despite 1000 raids this year, the illicit alcohol trade persists. Victim families demand justice and financial aid as communities grapple with the crisis's repercussions.
