Traffic sergeant injured in Hit-and-Run incident near Park Circus
NCP leader Sharad Pawar shared the stage with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the Tilak Memorial Trust event on Tuesday. Between exercising opposition unity and a split in the NCP, Sharad Pawar's decision did not sit well with the opposition parties, especially the Congress.
In this program organized in Pune, Prime Minister Modi was awarded the Lokmanya Tilak National Award by the Trust.
Notably, this is the first time that Sharad Pawar and PM Modi are sharing the stage together in a program after Ajit Pawar's rebellion.
Before the Tilak Memorial Trust program, PM Modi offered prayers at the Dagdusheth Temple in Pune. Soon after reaching Pune from Delhi, PM, Modi reached this famous Ganesh Temple located on Shivaji Road.
Temple administrators said Modi is the first prime minister to visit and offer prayers at the temple in this capacity.
Managed by the Shrimant Dagdusheth Halwai Ganapati Trust, Dagdusheth Halwai Temple is one of the richest temples in the state, and devotees believe that the presiding deity fulfills their wishes.
