Former Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis has denied allegations that the former BJP-Shiv Sena government tapped phones of political leaders including that of NCP chief Sharad Pawar and present CM Uddhav Thackeray. Fadnavis said phone-tapping is "not the culture of Maharashtra". "A Shiv Sena leader was the Minister of State (MoS) for Home during my tenure," the former CM added.
