In a significant political development, Maharashtra's Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has accused leaders from the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) of orchestrating a conspiracy against BJP MLA Jaykumar Gore. The case involves allegations of harassment and extortion, in which NCP leaders Supriya Sule and Rohit Pawar are purportedly implicated.

Responding to a motion in the state assembly, Fadnavis revealed communication evidence between NCP leaders and those accused of attempting to extort money from Gore. He assured that a thorough investigation would be conducted, emphasizing the political nature of the attacks aimed at destabilizing his ministry.

The controversy stems from an earlier case where Gore faced harassment charges. Despite his acquittal, the opposition demands his resignation, citing new developments. Fadnavis highlights the political rivalry, asserting that opposition leaders have continuously undermined the House's integrity.
