A complaint has been filed against 10-15 NCP (Nationalist Congress Party) workers, including Baba Jagtap on Friday at Kurduwadi police station. This comes hours after a purported video of Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar getting into a heated exchange with IPS officer Anjali Krishna went viral online.
The party workers have been booked under different sections of illegal mining and obstructing government servants, including sections 303(2), 3(5) of BNS and Section 9.15 of the Environment Protection Act and BNS Sections 132, 189(2), 189(3), 189(5).

Earlier, a video went viral in which Pawar asked Officer Krishna to stop the action against illegal excavation of murrum, which is widely used as a sub-base and filling material for road construction.
“Suno, mai deputy chief minister bol raha hu aur aapko aadesh deta hu ki vo rokwao (Listen, I am the deputy chief minister and giving you the order to stop it),” Pawar was heard saying.
“How dare you? I will take action against you. You will at least recognise my face, won’t you?” he said.
