काल रात्री भंडारा जिल्ह्यातील गणेशपुर येथील प्रचारसभा संपवून राहत्या गावी सुकळी येथे जाताना भिलेवाडा जवळ माझ्या गाडीचा भीषण अपघात झाला. हा अपघात होता कि घातपाताचा प्रयत्न? पोलीस याची चौकशी करतील.आपल्या सर्वांच्या सदिच्छा, प्रेम व परमेश्वराच्या कृपेने मी सुखरूप आहे. काळजी नसावी… pic.twitter.com/iIL7ZUjEIl

State Congress spokesperson Atul Londhe said Patole was on election campaigning in Bhandara district, when a truck hit his vehicle near Karda village on Tuesday night.
He claimed that the truck hit Patole’s car and tried to crush it.
In a post on X, Londhe said the incident raised concerns whether it was a sabotage attempt. ”This is a serious incident and there is room for doubt if it was an attempt on his life. Does the BJP want to win elections by finishing off opposition leaders?” he asked.
Londhe said Patole escaped unhurt and was fine due to the blessings of people.
Elections to 48 Lok Sabha constituencies in Maharashtra will be held in five phases from April 19 to May 20.
