Opposition Tuesday staged walk- out in both Houses of Maharashtra legislature, alleging that the state's budget for 2019-20 was "leaked" on the Twitter handle of Finance Minister Sudhir Mungantiwar before he presented it in the Assembly.

This was an "insult" of legislators, the opposition members said and demanded an apology from Mungantiwar and Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis over it.

"We were in power for 15 years, but the budget never got leaked. Now the budget provisions were being put out on the finance minister's Twitter account along with advertisement even before he read out those to us," NCP MLA Ajit Pawar told reporters.
