Mumbai and Maharashtra share a historical connection, particularly with Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Despite the recent controversy involving Praful Patel felicitating Prime Minister Narendra Modi with a Jire Top Pagadi associated with Shivaji Maharaj, there have been mixed reactions in the region. Senior leader Sharad Pawar criticized Patel during a press conference, highlighting the need to uphold Maharashtra's image.

In response to the backlash, Patel expressed regret and assured that he would be more cautious in the future. However, the protests and criticisms persist. Sharad Pawar condemned the actions of Patel, emphasizing that the leaders in Mahayuti are undermining Maharashtra's reputation by bowing down to the central government. Acknowledging the sentiments of Shivaji Maharaj's admirers, Patel retracted his actions and emphasized his respect for the historical figure.

He pledged to uphold Shivaji Maharaj's values and work towards the betterment of the public. Patel affirmed his commitment to never disrespect the legacy of Shivaji Maharaj and vowed to be more mindful moving forward.
