Political tensions escalated between the BJP and the ruling BVA over the inauguration of the Virar sports complex, located in Bolinj, Virar West, Maharashtra. The controversy began at 10:00 AM when both parties vied for credit in the inauguration ceremony. After an intense 6-hour standoff, BJP workers and office-bearers successfully cut the ribbon at around 4:00 PM, marking their inauguration of the ₹69-crore sports complex.
The BJP's entrance was followed by a surprise visit from Shiv Sena leader and MLA Ravindra Pathak, joining the opposition ranks.
