BJP Slams Shiv Sena-UBT For ‘Selfish Politics’
Reportedly former bjp mp Navneet Rana on thursday accused uddhav Thackeray’s party of indulging in “selfish politics" and blaming the congress for its “failure" in the assembly elections after Danve’s remarks. Rana said the shiv sena (UBT) was focusing on securing the cm post rather than working coherently with alliance partners.She told “In 2019, when we contested, they had a few more seats, but they didn’t even like the alliance with the BJP. Today, when their seats are fewer, they don’t like the congress alliance either. Whether they have more seats or fewer, they don’t like their alliances. From this, you can understand that those who are full of arrogance don’t like any partner, whether good or bad. They only do politics for their own self-interest and position”.Moreover congress leader vishwajeet Patangrao Kadam also criticised Danve’s remarks, saying it was “unnecessary" to make such statements at this time. “I would prefer that our colleagues, who fought the election for the MVA, be supported and encouraged. It’s important to boost the morale of our workers and give them strength," he said. MVA bloc suffered a wipeout in the maharashtra elections, with Shiv Sena-UBT winning the largest seats (20) out of the 89 it contested. The congress was reduced to 16 seats out of the 103 it contested and the Sharad Pawar-led ncp could only bag 10 seats. The defeat washed out their gains in the lok sabha elections, where it won 30 out of 48 seats.
