A major controversy has erupted in Pune over Muslim women offering Namaz at the historic Shaniwar Wada fort, leading to a 'purification' ritual by BJP workers led by Rajya Sabha MP Medha Kulkarni. The incident has triggered a sharp political face-off, with leaders like BJP's Nitesh Rane and Samajwadi Party's Abu Azmi making inflammatory statements. Reacting to the events, Nitesh Rane said, 'Will you be fine with Hindus going to Haji Ali and chanting Hanuman Chalisa?'. The move was condemned by opposition parties and, notably, by the BJP's regional ally, the Ajit Pawar-led NCP, which accused the BJP of attempting to disturb the city's social harmony. Following a complaint by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI), which manages the monument, Pune Police have registered a case against three unidentified women for offering prayers at the heritage site.
