Baramati Crash: Rohit Pawar alleges VSR Ventures cover-up, questions AAIB report.

  • NCP (SP) MLA Rohit Pawar alleges attempts to shield VSR Ventures following the Baramati plane crash that killed Maharashtra deputy chief minister Ajit Pawar and four others.
  • Pawar claims the AAIB preliminary report, which cited low visibility, fading runway marks, and loose gravel, vindicates his earlier doubts and contains discrepancies.
  • He contests the report's finding that the aircraft hit trees, stating there were none at the crash site, and questions the probe's seriousness.
  • Pawar highlights VSR Ventures' alleged past lapses, including an incident where an aircraft carrying CM Eknath Shinde entered Iranian/Iraqi airspace without permission.
  • He demands details on VSR Ventures' investors, questions its owner's alleged relation to the Union Civil Aviation Minister, and raises concerns about AAIB's independence.
