Addressing the media on Wednesday, he questioned Jagan's record on farmer welfare, and development during the YSRCP regime.

Highlighting the success of the Deepam 2.0 scheme, he said 97 lakh beneficiaries received three free gas cylinders under Phase 1. Under Phase 2, Rs 846 crore was released for it benefiting 91.10 lakh people.

Drugs party raid: Rohini Khadse meets police officials, seeks medical report of husband
Rohini Khadse, leader of the NCP (SP), on Monday, visited the Pune city police authorities probing the case against her husband Dr Pranjal Khewalkar, who is among the seven persons arrested in the alleged drugs party case. Police officials confirmed that a medical examination of the seven accused confirmed that two of them, including Khewalkar, had consumed liquor at the alleged drugs party. But, the medical report is yet to tell if they had consumed the banned drugs or not, the police said. Meanwhile, Rohini posted on X, saying that there were news reports on receiving Dr Khewalkar's medical report from the Sassoon hospital. Rohini stated in her post that her family has not received the said medical report, but that some media representatives did. 'We asked the police for this medical report, but we were told that it will be directly submitted to the court. We are watching on some news channels that mediapersons have received this medical report. I request the mediapersons to share this report with us. It will help us in presenting our side..' she stated. Rohini is the daughter of senior politician and former Maharashtra minister Eknath Khadse. Police had arrested Khewalkar along with four men and two women during a raid at apartment number 102 of the Staybird Azure Suite building in Kharadi around 3.20 am on Sunday. Police said 2.7 grams of substance suspected to be cocaine, 70 grams of substances suspected to be marijuana and other items including ten cell phones, two cars, hookah pot, liquor and beer bottles, all worth Rs 41,35,400, were seized from the spot. A court remanded the seven accused to police custody till July 29 for further investigation. Police said they are probing who supplied the purported cocaine and marijuana to the accused at the apartment in Kharadi. Khewalkar's lawyer Vijaysinh Thombre claimed that police planted the contraband seized in this case for 'political' reasons. Thombre argued that drugs were neither consumed by Khewalkar nor recovered from his possession, so the charges against him under NDPS act are false. The other accused in this case include a cigarette trader Nikhil Jethanand Poptani (35) of DSK Sundarban, Amanora Park and a construction businessman Shripad Mohan Yadav (27) of Akurdi. Poptani was booked in an online cricket betting racket case registered at the Kondhwa police station in May 2023. As per police records, Yadav was earlier booked in three criminal cases of gambling, cheating and allegedly causing hurt to a government servant on duty at different police stations in Pune.
