The MVA government on Wednesday attacked the Opposition Bharatiya Janata Party and demanded Devendra Fadnavis to justify his claims made on Tuesday of the state getting huge financial help from the Centre to tackle the Covid-19 crisis.

Nationalist Congress Party state president and Water Resources Minister Jayant Patil said from Fadnavis statements, doubts are raised whether he is a friend or enemy of Maharashtra.

"Instead of cooperating, he's busy vilifying all the good work of the MVA government, the state BJP thought it fit to give money to the PM Care Fund but not the CM Relief Fund, he has no faith in the skills of the youth of our state and made misleading statements," Patil said.

Congress state chief and Revenue Minister Balasaheb Thorat targeted Fadnavis saying rather than working with the government or using his good offices to get a good financial package from the Centre, the Opposition is busy trying to topple the MVA government.

The MVA leaders addressed a joint press conference on Wednesday, countered all issues raised by the BJP leader at his media briefing on Tuesday, and termed his statements as imaginary.
