Gunaratna Sadavarte said that the "leadership under Devendra Fadnavis will give justice to the ST employees. I will give justice not only to ST employees but also to farmers and toilers, workers."

"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. He also said at that time that his organization will contest the ST bank election. Meanwhile, he claimed that 95 percent of the employees are members of the ST Toilers' Jana Sangh. Sadavarte raised a big movement against the Thackeray government. Now, with the Shinde-Fadnavis government in the state, Sadavart's confidence has increased.
