“There is no politics involved here. This is purely an accident,” Pawar said, adding that attempts to attach political motives to the tragedy were deeply hurtful. “The pain of this incident is being felt by Maharashtra and by all of us. I appeal to everyone not to politicise this tragedy,” he said.
