"Maha Vikas Aghadi is teen tigada kaam bigada...": Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 7 (ANI): Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Sunday hit out at the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) saying that the opposition is "Teen Tigada Kaam Bigada," adding that the Mahayuti alliance comprising the BJP, Shiv Sena, and NCP is going to win all seats in Vidarbha.
"Mahayuti (BJP, Shiv Sena, NCP alliance) is getting a good response in Vidarbha. There is such an atmosphere that the Mahayuti will win all the Lok Sabha seats in Vidarbha. In two to three days, the Mahayuti will decide on the remaining seats. Maha Vikas Aghadi is "Teen Tigada Kaam Bigada". They have no agenda," CM Shinde said.
Earlier in the day, the Maharashtra Chief Minister hailed the Centre as "the people's government" and said, hence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is "getting a good response."
Further, he said, "They (UBT Shiv Sena) need to do self-reflection."
Uddhav Thackeray Faction leaders Babanrao Gholap and Sanjay Pawar, along with other workers, joined Shiv Sena in the presence of Maharashtra CM and Shiv Sena Chief Eknath Shinde.
Soon after joining the Shiv Sena, Gholap said that the Shiv Sena (UBT) had done injustice to him.
"UBT Shiv Sena has done injustice to me, they removed me from the party post and when I asked them why, I was sacked. They didn't reply so I decided to join the Shiv Sena. Eknath Shinde has given a positive reply, and whatever post is given to me, I will do justice to it," he said.
Meanwhile, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis announced on Saturday that CM Eknath Shinde's son and Shiv Sena MP Shrikant Shinde will contest from Kalyan in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Lok Sabha polls in Maharashtra will be held in five phases on April 19, April 26, May 7, May 13 and May 20. The counting of votes will be held on June 4.
The state, with its 48 Lok Sabha seats, is the second-largest contributor to the lower house of Parliament after Uttar Pradesh. Known for its political diversity and significant electoral influence, Maharashtra plays a crucial role in shaping national politics.
In the 2019 elections, the BJP emerged as the largest party with 23 seats, followed by the Shiv Sena (undivided) with 18 seats. (ANI)
