"My 100 ST employees are sitting at home due to the dark government of Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar. However, these ST workers instilled confidence in the MLAs and showed that no one is left alone. From that, Sharad Pawar's government was gone. Now, I have no doubt that they will put on 119 laborious bands and go to work," Gunaratna Sadavarte said confidently.  

Meanwhile, Ed. Gunaratna Sadavarte entered politics after his imprisonment. Gunaratna Sadavarte announced his new organization ST Toilers Jan Sangh.
