BJP, Shinde Sena, AIMIM are one and same in provoking people by creating Hindu–Muslim discord; Congress' Sapkal

Chandrapur/ Mumbai, Jan 13 (UNI) The BJP and Asaduddin Owaisi’s AIMIM are fuelling religious issues to serve their political interests. They incite the public by creating Hindu–Muslim and Maratha–OBC divisions, yet come together when it comes to power, said Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee president Harshvardhan Sapkal.
"The green kite’s string is saffron, and the bow’s arrow is green," said Sapkal, and urged voters to teach this "hypocritical BJP, Shinde Sena and AIMIM a lesson in the municipal corporation elections and ensure a majority victory for the Congress".
On the last day of campaigning for the municipal corporation elections, Congress state president Harshvardhan Sapkal campaigned in Chandrapur. On this occasion, Leader of the Legislature Party Vijay Wadettiwar, MP Pratibha Dhanorkar, MLA Sudhakar Adbale, former minister Vasant Purke, District Congress Committee president and former MLA Subhash Dhote, City Congress president Santosh Lahange, and other Congress office-bearers were present.
