Rahul seeks fair, impartial probe into Ajit Pawar’s plane crash

New Delhi, March 12: Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Thursday demanded a fair, transparent and impartial investigation into the Baramati air crash that claimed the life of Maharashtra’s former deputy chief minister Ajit Pawar. Gandhi met with Rohit Pawar, an MLA in Maharashtra and the grandson of NCP-SP leader Sharad Pawar, who is also Ajit Pawar’s nephew. During their meeting, Rohit Pawar handed Gandhi a letter expressing serious concerns about the investigation into the accident. “Shri Rohit Pawar met me today and submitted a letter raising serious concerns about the investigation into the Baramati aircraft crash that claimed the life of Shri Ajit Pawar ji and others,” Gandhi said in a post on X. “Basic principles of law appear not to have been followed, and no FIR has been registered despite the seriousness of the matter. This incident warrants a fair, transparent, and impartial investigation,” Gandhi demanded. (PTI)
