After MLA Ravi Rana, now Guardian Minister Ed. There has been a rift between Yashomati Thakur and her own party’s MLA Sulabha Khodke.
In the presence of All India Congress PRO Pallam Raju, on Sunday, in the review meeting of the party people at the divisional level for the digital registration campaign, Guardian Minister Ed. MLA Sulabha Khodke has retaliated on Yashomati Thakur’s remark. Due to which what will be the effect of this political separation on the party in the municipal elections. While the partymen are confused about this, the BJP has blossomed in the role of wait and watch.
NCP preferred by staying in Congress
On Sunday, in the presence of former Union Minister Pallam Raju, foster minister Ed. Yashomati Thakur, without naming anyone, clearly said that after bringing outsiders elected, the party has to suffer. That is why now outsiders will not tolerate Congress ticket. Even though the party has 3 MLAs, only 2 MLAs are working on the ideology of the party. Even after being elected on a Congress ticket, he also complained to Pallap Raju about the work being done to advance the other party (NCP). Similarly, former MLA Virendra Jagtap reiterated the same point while pointing to MP Navneet Rana and MLA Sulabha Khodke. Former Guardian Minister Dr. Sunil Deshmukh, Congress District President Bablu Deshmukh, City President Bablu Shekhawat were also present in this program.
I don’t need to explain Congress ideology
In a counterattack, MLA Sulabha Khodke has said that in the year 2014 also, I had contested the Badnera Assembly elections on a Congress ticket. In the year 2017 also, Congress gave me the candidature from Amravati assembly constituency. The BJP candidate who defeated the strong candidate of the royal family by 50 thousand votes. Without naming Dr. Sunil Deshmukh, Khodke said that the same BJP candidate had left no stone unturned to defeat the Congress candidate (Khodke) in the 2019 assembly elections. But even after the Modi wave in the whole country, I defeated the BJP candidate by more than 20 thousand votes and once again raised the flag of Congress in Amravati assembly constituency.
Today the same candidate has been sanctified by entering the Congress. Those who were talking about toppling the Congress earlier today are now seen promoting the Congress. I have never left the Congress party. I am working as a true worker of Congress. I don’t need to explain the ideology of Congress. The time when I took the Congress candidature.
What was the position of Congress in Amravati assembly constituency at that time. Everyone knows this. That’s why before accusing me, MLA Sulkha Khodke also called for a peek in his own pocket. She also clarified that Congress senior Pallam Raju could not participate in the program due to her being at a relative’s wedding ceremony in Mumbai on Sunday, February 27. Pallam Raju was also informed about this.
