Nagpur News: The Mahayuti (Grand Alliance) consisting of BJP, Shiv Sena, RPI (Athawale) and Raju Shetty-led Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghatana candidate for Nagpur Lok Sabha constituency Nitin Gadkari launched a scathing attack on Congress candidate for not developing Nagpur despite being elected Member of Parliament for consecutive 4 times. Gadkari addressed three meetings in Central Nagpur’s Timki, Siraspeth and Nawabpura on Tuesday.
The BJP leader appealed voters to shun the inactive and vote for development. “Congress and its candidate are experts in misleading people by spreading lies. Despite winning the Lok Sabha polls four times, Nagpur has not been developed in any way. But when elections come, then only comes out for votes. But this time, the people are in the mood of change as they are fed up with rising prices, corruption, scams,” Gadkari said.
The meetings were attended, apart from large number of people, by Mayor Anil Sole, MLA Vikas Kumbhare, Dayashankar Tiwari, Central Nagpur Division President Vilas Trivedi, Shiv Sena City Chief Suraj Goje, RPI (Athawale) Group’s Raju Bahadure, former Mayor Archana Dehankar, Sripad Risaldar, Rambhau Ambulkar, BJP City General Secretary Rajesh Bagdi, Pramod Pendke, Kalpak Bhanarkar, Rashmi Fadnavis, Corporators Bandu Raut, Pravin Bhisikar, Ramesh Punekar, Umatai Gathibandhe, and others.
