Tensions ran high between the Opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi’s (MVA) constituents Shiv Sena (UBT) and Congress on Sunday as both parties continued to stake claim over which candidate would contest the Sangli Lok Sabha seat in the election.
The Shiv Sena (UBT), in its list of 21 candidates, has already announced wrestler Chandrahar Patil for the Sangli seat — a move that has irked the Congress leadership across the State.
On Sunday, Maharashtra Congress chief Nana Patole hit out at Shiv Sena (UBT) spokesperson Sanjay Raut, urging him to “stop his antics” and rein in his tongue.
