Maharashtra Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis has said that Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar's claim that Mahayuti's Lok Sabha candidate Ujjwal Nikam "suppressed facts" about IPS officer Hemant Karkare's death in 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks is "baseless". "Our alliance is with Nikam, while Congress has joined hands with [Ajmal Kasab]," he added. Vijay alleged an RSS-linked officer killed Karkare.
