Senior NCP leader Ajit Pawar hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis for what he claimed were false promises made to the people. Pawar, a former deputy chief minister of the state, was speaking at a function Thursday night in Dombivali in the district.

He said PM Modi's promise of "depositing" Rs 15 lakh in the bank accounts of people was an illusion. Pawar also attacked Fadnavis and said the CM had, during civic poll campaigning, promised to allocate Rs 6,500 crore to the Kalyan Dombivali Municipal Corporation (KDMC) for development works.
