Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis pledged support to actor Tiger Shroff after a firing incident, while opposition lawmakers questioned the state's law‑and‑order record.
Tiger Shroff was reportedly involved in a firing incident that has drawn public attention. The specifics of the episode have not been disclosed, but the actor’s safety and legal standing have become a matter of concern.
Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis publicly assured Shroff that the government would extend its full support, emphasizing that the matter would be handled in accordance with the law.
Opposition legislators, however, seized the opportunity to critique the state administration, arguing that the incident reflects broader lapses in law and order. They called for a thorough investigation and stricter enforcement of firearm regulations.
The exchange underscores the political sensitivity surrounding high‑profile incidents in Maharashtra, where law‑and‑order issues often become focal points of partisan debate.
