Shiv Sena MP Shrikant Shinde Wednesday questioned the Maharashtra BJP over its local body poll alliances with the Congress in Ambernath and the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) in Akot, saying the party must explain such decisions. Reacting to the development, Shinde, the Lok Sabha MP from Kalyan and son of Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, said if the BJP has entered into alliances with the Congress and the AIMIM at the local level, it is a matter for the BJP to answer. “The media should ask BJP leaders about how and why these alliances were formed.

Recalling the party’s ideological roots, Shinde said the rebellion led by Eknath Shinde was against such political tendencies and that Balasaheb Thackeray had consistently opposed the Congress throughout his political life. “If such alliances are happening today, the BJP is better placed to explain them. Our opposition to the Congress was firm and will remain so,” he …
