Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has dismissed allegations linking Pune MLA Sunil Tingre to the Porsche crash that resulted in the deaths of two software engineers. Pawar termed the accusations as baseless on Saturday.

Sunil Tingre, a member of the Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), represents the Vadgaon Sheri assembly constituency in Pune city. Allegations had surfaced suggesting that Tingre intervened to ensure favourable treatment for the juvenile involved in Pune car crash, reported PTI.
