Mumbai is buzzing with political drama as Shiv Sena leader Ramdas Kadam stirs a fiery controversy around his son, Yogesh Kadam, who is the minister of state for home. Ramdas Kadam revealed that Yogesh approved a gun licence for Sachin Ghaywal, who is the brother of Nilesh Ghaywal — accused in the Kothrud firing case. But the real spicy part? Ramdas says his son acted on the advice of a powerful 'judge' who not just advises ministers but actually gives them orders! This mysterious figure is said to hold high office in the legislature. Adding fuel to the fire, Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut pointed fingers at Ram Shinde, the chairperson of the legislative council, saying Ramdas Kadam's comments are hinting at him. Meanwhile, Yogesh Kadam himself met with Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Friday to explain his side of the story. But wait, the drama doesn't stop there! Deputy CM Ajit Pawar jumped into the conversation by stating that the Pune police commissioner never actually gave the gun licence. He made it clear: no interference will be allowed in this sensitive matter. To pile on more spice, Shiv Sena (UBT)'s Anil Parab alleged that Yogesh Kadam overruled the Pune police commissioner's refusal to grant the arms licence to Ghaywal. This allegation adds another twist in the saga, stirring questions about the power play behind the scenes. In a nutshell, this political thriller combines family drama, accusations of power abuse, and a dash of mystery about who really pulls the strings in Maharashtra's political theatre. Stay tuned as this story unfolds!
