Sanket Bawankule orders beef cutlet in Nagpur during Shravan

Sanket Bawankule, the son of Maharashtra BJP president Chandrashekhar Bawankule, was involved in a serious incident in Nagpur where his speeding Audi allegedly struck multiple vehicles, resulting in 17-18 people being hospitalized. The accident raised significant concerns regarding law enforcement and accountability, particularly as it occurred under the watch of Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, who has been criticized for his handling of law and order in the state. Shiv Sena UBT MP Sanjay Raut accused Bawankule of hypocrisy for consuming beef cutlet and alcohol during the holy month of Shravan, questioning the moral integrity of those who advocate for Hindutva while engaging in such behavior. Raut's allegations included claims that the driver of the vehicle was switched after the accident, suggesting a cover-up and a lack of proper legal action against Bawankule. He emphasized the disparity in treatment between influential individuals and ordinary citizens, arguing that had a regular person been involved, they would have faced severe repercussions. Raut's comments reflect broader concerns about privilege and accountability in Maharashtra's political landscape, as he called for transparency and justice in the wake of the incident, warning that the public would not forgive perceived injustices.
