The ruling party in the post along with the video said, "Let it be, some leaders just have a habit of creating drama." The BJP said the deputy CM's bag was checked in Yavatmal district on November 7, but he neither recorded any video nor made a fuss about it.Earlier, on November 5, Fadnavis' bags were also checked at the Kolhapur airport, it said referring to the video."Simply holding the Constitution for show is not enough; one must also follow constitutional systems. We only request that everyone respects the Constitution," the BJP said in the post.On Tuesday, Fadnavis said Thackeray was trying to divert the attention by needlessly protesting about the checking of his bags by poll officials and was "seeking votes by whining".“What is wrong with checking of bags?” the senior BJP leader had wondered.Also Read: BREAKING: Massive Fire Breaks Out at Vaitarna Building in Mumbai's Worli | Republic World
