Against the backdrop of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, several political leaders have started a series of allegations and counter-allegations against each other. They are not leaving a single stone unturned to allege each other at public or even family functions.
Major political leaders of Shiv Sena Shinde group, Thackeray group, BJP, Congress and NCP gathered at a family function of engagement at Beed By-pass Road on Sunday. During the function, guardian minister Sandipan Bhumre and Thackeray group leader Vinod Ghosalkar countered each other. Ghosalkar taking a pinch on the recent clash between Bhumre and legislative council opposition leader Ambadas Danve during the DPC meeting, said to Bhumre that please maintain a balance in the distribution of the funds. Bhumre replied that the balance has already been maintained.
When this scribe asked Ghosalkar if there would be a challenge from Bhumre to the Thackeray group for the upcoming Lok Sabha election, he said that they will see Bhumre. While Bhumre replied let's see in the near future who sees whom. Bhumre also said that it is difficult to say at this moment whether the Lok Sabha seat in the district goes to BJP or the Shinde group. The decision will be taken at the senior level, but we are prepared.
Karad says he is willing
