Mocking Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut’s claim that an anti-BJP coalition would be formed in Goa, the ruling party in the state said on Friday that he was daydreaming. Goa BJP chief Vinay Tendulkar also said that Raut should rather ensure that his party fulfilled the promises made to the people of Maharashtra, where it has formed Government with the help of the Congress and NCP.
“Raut is daydreaming like Rs Mungerilal Ke Haseen Sapne’,” Tendulkar said, referring to the Doordarshan series which was aired in 1989.
“Before venturing into Goa’s politics, Raut should first ensure that his party fulfills the promises made to the people of Maharashtra,” he said.
Raut should also see to it that his party’s candidates do not lose deposits in Lok Sabha and Assembly elections in Goa, the BJP leader further said. Raut said earlier on Friday that an anti-BJP coalition would be formed in Goa soon. He was speaking after meeting Goa Forward Party (GFP) chief Vijai Sardesai in Mumbai.
“The Shiv Sena, which used to slam Congress chief Sonia Gandhi, has overnight changed its ideology to cobble up an unholy alliance in Maharashtra,” Tendulkar further said.
