In response to inquiries about Dhananjay Munde's potential resignation following the Beed sarpanch murder case, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar suggested that such questions be directed to Munde himself. Pawar emphasized that Munde has denied any involvement in the case and highlighted the importance of moral responsibility, referencing his own resignation in 2010 under similar circumstances.

The controversy centers around the murder of Santosh Deshmukh, a sarpanch from Massajog in Beed district, who was abducted and killed on December 9, 2024. The prime suspect, Walmik Karad, is reportedly a close associate of Munde, leading to increased scrutiny and calls for Munde's resignation from various political figures.

Pawar has stated that any action against Munde should be based on concrete evidence. He urged those making allegations to provide substantial proof to the investigating agencies, ensuring that decisions are grounded in verified information

As the investigation progresses, the situation remains dynamic, with political pressures and public interest influencing the discourse surrounding Munde's position in the government.
