Prior to the Maharashtra assembly elections, there appears to be a spike in the political climate within the state. As the election day approaches, the leaders are becoming more outspoken with their statements. Meanwhile, Arvind Sawant, a leader of Uddhav Thackeray’s Shiv Sena (UBT), has caused a political uproar in the state by referring to Shiv Sena leader Shaina NC as ‘imported goods’. Shiv Sena has initiated a confrontation with Sawant. Shaina NC, who was previously a leader of the BJP, lodged a complaint with the Mumbai Police today.
Shiv Sena female activists protested outside Nagpada Police Station in Mumbai and called for Uddhav faction MP Arvind Sawant to issue an apology to Shaina NC. While at the Nagpada police station, Shaina filed a complaint against Arvind Sawant for his comment about ‘imported goods’. Following this, a legal case has been filed against Arvind Sawant.
Eknath Shinde, the Chief Minister, has granted a Vidhan Sabha ticket to Shiv Sena’s Shaina NC from the Mumbadevi seat in Mumbai. On the day she received the ticket, Shaina quit BJP and joined Shiv Sena. Addressing the situation, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Arvind Sawant mentioned on Tuesday, “Consider his state… he has been dealing with this illness throughout his whole life She used to be in BJP and now she has joined a different party They have left. Only local products are available here at Mumbadevi, imported goods are not sold. This place only sells authentic, original products that belong to us.
Shaina NC stated that you cannot show respect to a woman. These words hold no value for an accomplished woman. They are used by those in politics… Understand that you are in trouble for deceiving the woman. He uttered the word ‘maal’. I might act on what he said or I might not, but it’s the public that will ultimately decide.
The Shiv Sena leader mentioned that before lodging a police complaint, there are initiatives like Eknath Shinde’s Ladki Bahu Yojana and the Prime Minister’s Ujjwala, Mudra Banking, and Housing Scheme that empower women. However, Mahavinash Aghadi’s Arvind Sawant describing me as ‘imported goods’ reveals not only his own viewpoint but also that of Congress MLA Amin Patel, who was present and found it amusing. You will need to offer an apology at the Nagpada police station… Mahavinash Aghadi will face difficulties on November 20…
The ruling party will participate in the assembly elections from Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde) on Monday night 15. The third candidate list, which includes BJP National Spokesperson Shaina NC, has been announced. Shaina was nominated as a candidate for the Mumbadevi seat in Mumbai and later became a member of Shivsena. In Mumbadevi, Shaina NC’s primary opponent is Amin Patel, a Congress MLA.
On Tuesday, Amin Patel, running for Congress, submitted his nomination from Mumbadevi. Patel was joined by Arvind Sawant, a leader of Shiv Sena (UBT). When asked about Shaina NC, Sawant reportedly made a controversial comment in response to reporters. Congress has consistently emerged victorious in the Mumbadevi constituency since 2009.
