With municipal elections approaching, political accusations and counter-accusations have gained momentum. Shinde group's leader Deepak Kesarkar has strongly criticized the Thackeray group. He accused that the Marathi issue is brought forward only during elections, but no work was done while in power.
In Mumbai, there have been significant changes in roads, traffic, and other facilities in recent years, which will benefit the grand alliance, expressed Kesarkar. Due to future employment opportunities and the justice received by the Marathi people, Mumbaikars will stand in support of the grand alliance, he said.
Speaking on the issue of Savarkar, he criticized the Thackeray group for changing their stance while allying with the Congress. Previously, there used to be jokes about potholes in Mumbai, but now he claimed that the city will soon be pothole-free.
Meanwhile, they raised questions about the establishment of power in the Ambernath Municipal Council. Despite being the largest party, Shiv Sena remained out of power, and the BJP should introspect on this, they said. However, they expressed confidence that the grand alliance is strong in the state and Mumbai, and victory will be ours. Meanwhile, MP Dr. Shrikant Shinde has expressed dissatisfaction with the alliances made by local leaders in some places and has demanded that the BJP leadership take note of this.
