NCP leader Praful Patel
Whether the Lok Sabha elections have cooled down or not, the bugle of assembly elections has started sounding in the state. In the Lok Sabha, BJP and the grand alliance did not get the expected success in Maharashtra. BJP has lagged behind. Eknath Shinde’s party Shiv Sena performed well. But with only one MP of Ajit Pawar’s faction being elected, it was seen that they did not get any special benefit from the grand alliance. However, in the upcoming assembly elections, BJP, Shinde faction (Shiv Sena) and Ajit Pawar faction (NCP) are going to contest the elections together. But still, in this election, who will be the elder brother, who will contest the elections under whose leadership, who will be the face for the post of Chief Minister, differences are being seen among the leaders of various parties on many issues. Although the leaders of BJP and Shiv Sena Shinde faction are saying that they will contest the assembly elections under the leadership of Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, but it seems that the leaders of Ajit Pawar faction are saying something else.
The recent statement of Ajit Pawar faction leader Praful Patel has started a discussion about the lack of consensus in the Mahagathbandhan. We will all fight tomorrow’s election together. After that everyone will sit and decide about that (Chief Minister’s post).’ By saying that it is not appropriate to discuss it today, Praful Patel has indirectly indicated that the face for the Chief Minister’s post is not decided yet. It is certain that his statement has further agitated the Mahagathbandhan.
What did Praful Patel say?
At present, the Chief Minister of Mahayuti is Eknath Shinde. The budget was presented yesterday under his leadership, the assembly elections will be fought under his leadership. We will decide (about the post of Chief Minister) after the elections. Why are others in a hurry? The three parties will fight the assembly elections by strengthening the Mahagathbandhan. Just yesterday, I met JP Nadda and Amit Shah. They said that this is contrary to the news. The three of us will fight together, there will be no debate. The allocation of space will be done in a proper manner. We will seek people’s blessings as Mahayuti. Patel said this.
For opponents the grapes are sour
The budget presented yesterday by Finance Minister Ajit Pawar is fair for all. The Laxmi Behan Yojana is an effort to get justice to women. They are in power, they have to present the budget, it is the opposition’s job to criticise. This is not an election budget. Has the opposition ever welcomed the budget? The example is that the grapes are sour for them. What did the opposition give to anyone in our time? What did they give in the government of those who criticised. Patel advised that if things are going well then we should welcome them and show generosity.
The collapse of the airport roof is unfortunate, there is no politics on this
Yesterday, one person died and eight others were injured when the roof of Indira Gandhi International Airport collapsed in the capital Delhi. The opposition had criticized the government over this. But Patel said that this is wrong. If some incidents happen 15 years after the construction of Delhi airport, is the person of that time responsible for it? The opposition wants to create any issue. What happened is unfortunate. The government is investigating. We should wait for it. The airport has been privatized. Patel said, and if any incident happens after 15 years, it is not right to blame the government for it.
