Maharashtra BJP chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule said one should maintain decorum while criticising political opponents. He also warned of filing a complaint against 'Saamana', and said its "vitriol" needs to stop

The editorial said, "Devendra Fadnavis would have returned to power (post-2019 assembly elections) had he not betrayed the Shiv Sena. However, his party's top leaders in Delhi sidelined him and made him deputy chief minister"

"Fadnavis was a tolerant person earlier, but his frustration after being made the deputy CM resulted in him becoming intolerant and arrogant...They made him share the deputy chief minister's post with Ajit Pawar, adding to his woes," the editorial further read

Bawankule said, "Whenever Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray wants to criticise someone, he either uses the 'Saamana' daily or asks Sanjay Raut to make a statement"

Objecting to the language of the 'Saamana' editorial, Bawankule said, "There has to be a limit while criticising political opponents by a newspaper. Our leaders will soon take a decision on this...There could be some protest-like situation in Mumbai"
