A very sad day for Maharashtra. He was a leader who understood the grassroots. The condolences from all sides show his stature. But this also raises serious questions about the safety of air travel for our VVIPs. The DGCA must investigate thoroughly.

Life is so uncertain. One moment you're a powerful leader, the next... gone. Puts everything into perspective. May his soul attain Sadgati. Strength to the Pawar family.

While the condolences are appropriate, I hope the focus remains on the other passengers and crew who also lost their lives. Their families are grieving too, not just the political family.

As a Maharashtrian, this feels like a personal loss. He was always accessible and had a sharp political mind. The state has lost a son. Deepest condolences from Pune. 🕯️
