As the municipal elections in Maharashtra are underway, the political atmosphere is heated. Voting is on the 15th and results will be announced on the 16th. Against this backdrop, Thackeray group's MP Sanjay Raut interacted with journalists and launched a strong attack on the ruling party.
The issue of a serious incident that occurred a few months ago in a school in Badlapur has resurfaced. It is alleged that Tushar Apte, who is a co-accused in this case, has been given the position of a nominated corporator by the BJP. This has led to widespread criticism of the BJP, and Sanjay Raut has also expressed his anger over this.
Raut said that there was immense anger in Badlapur after the incident. Political leaders were not even allowed to go there. Allegations had also surfaced that pressure was being put on the victim girl and her mother to withdraw the complaint. In such a situation, it was expected that the concerned person would be in jail. However, it is shocking that they are being directly given a position under the umbrella of power.
“Giving a position to a person with serious allegations is like rewarding the crime,” criticized Raut. The government is playing with Maharashtra's values and such actions are not forgiven, he firmly stated.
