Bagwe, who was in Satara for a wedding, said the issue was settled after intervention by top party leaders. He refused to divulge any details about the patch-up.

Bagwe was at the centre of a controversy after the Pune police held up the renewal of his passport because of his alleged criminal background. Bagwe's spat with Singh has been on for the last few months — Bagwe had even announced Singh's transfer.

Sadanand Shetty, the Sena candidate who contested the 2009 Assembly polls against Bagwe filed a complaint with the Election Commission, alleging that Bagwe had filed a false affidavit.
