Shiv Sena (Shinde faction) MLA and Social Justice Minister Sanjay Shirsat faced political backlash when Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut shared a video showing Shirsat seated beside what appeared to be a bag of cash. Shirsat clarified that it was merely dirty laundry, dismissing corruption allegations as politically motivated. He also confirmed receiving an Income Tax Department notice for unexplained wealth increase between the 2019–2024 elections, citing that all assets were declared in his affidavit and requesting more time to respond. The incident has intensified infighting in Maharashtra politics and calls for an impartial probe. (PC: X)
