TDN

In a developing story that continues to capture public attention, Sanjay Rathod, the leader of the Shiv Sena Shinde group, finds himself in hot water once again as the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly elections approach. The case surrounding the tragic death of actress Pooja Chavan has taken a new turn with the filing of a public interest litigation (PIL) in the Bombay High Court, calling for a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the circumstances surrounding her demise.

Pooja Chavan, a rising star in the entertainment industry, tragically took her own life by jumping from the first-floor gallery of Heaven Park in Kondhwa. Rathod has been named as an accused in the case, leading to significant scrutiny of his actions and associations. The PIL specifically demands the disclosure of crucial forensic lab reports and call detail records (CDR) related to the investigation, raising important questions about the transparency of the ongoing inquiry.

The situation has also stirred political tensions, especially following Rathod's recent alliance with the Mahayuti coalition. This alliance has led to increased speculation regarding the role of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and BJP leader Chitra Wagh in the unfolding drama. While the issue had remained relatively dormant in public discourse over the past few days, the recent legal developments signify a resurgence of interest and concern regarding Rathod's involvement.

As the Bombay High Court prepares to address the PIL, observers are keen to see how this case will impact Rathod's political standing and the broader implications for the Shiv Sena Shinde group as they gear up for the upcoming elections. With the stakes rising, the call for a CBI investigation into Pooja Chavan's death could potentially unveil new revelations that might change the course of the political landscape in Maharashtra. The situation continues to unfold, and all eyes are on the developments that will follow in the coming weeks.
