Shivaji statue collapse: Nilesh Rane demands action against persons at fault

BJP leader Nilesh N Rane arrived at the location where a statue of Maratha warrior king Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj collapsed on Monday. Visuals from the site showed the podium covered with cloth where the statue was installed. After the incident, Chief Minister Eknath Shinde blamed “strong winds” for the cave-in.” The local police filed an FIR against contractor Jaydeep Apte and structural consultant Chetan Patil following the statue's collapse.
