Reacting to the development, Maharashtra Congress president Harshvardhan Sapkal demanded the minister’s immediate resignation, calling the incident a serious concern reflecting declining ethical standards in politics. He also urged for a prompt investigation into the matter and appropriate action.Meanwhile, senior leader Jayant Patil said he had not yet seen the video and would comment only after verifying the facts.

As the controversy unfolds, calls for clarity and accountability are growing, with opposition leaders pressing for swift action pending verification of the claims.
