Congress objected to the presence of a galaxy of religious and spiritual leaders at the swearing-in ceremony of the Devendra Fadnavis ministry.
“This was a government function but sadhus, saints, buwa-baba and maharajs (godmen) were present in a large number,” former Chief Minister Ashok Chavan said, after the event at the Wankhede Stadium.
“Is this not superstition?” asked the senior Congress leader, adding, “There were allegations that I encouraged superstition when Sathya Sai Baba visited the Varsha bungalow when I was the Chief Minister”.
