Following the Pune Rape Case, the opposition attacked the Fadnavis government and termed the case as an example of ‘faliure of government’. Shiv Sena (UBT) spokesperson Anand Dubey said, "...The Pune incident has shaken the entire Maharashtra...We are living in modern times but such barbarism is happening in these times. Govt and those responsible for law & order are responsible for this. People swear by the law & order in Maharashtra...The manner in which crime has increased in Pune is very unfortunate...After 48 hours, Govt is appreciating itself that it has nabbed the accused...What is the guarantee that he acted alone? It is possible that there is a gang behind this...Locals say that buses remain parked there and incident happen on those buses everyday. This incident has come to light, several others might not have. Govt must dismantle this entire gang. We demand Devendra Fadnavis to hang the guilty and also have an investigation...Law & order of entire Maharashtra is collapsing..." Congress National Spokesperson Atul Londhe Patil saidd, "Such incidents, happening again and again, reveal the failure of government. A fake encounter was done in Badlapur case, High Court also made an observation...It is a failure of the government that it is unable to provide security to women..."
