Politics in Maharashtra now similar to Bigg Boss show: Pankaja Munde

BJP leader Pankaja Munde on Friday said that politics in the state had become like the Bigg Boss show on TV.

“At present, politics seems to be child’s play. Is there a Bigg Boss show going on in the state? These doubts come to mind. The issue of development has been sidelined in the midst of allegations. On the other hand, Dawood, the underworld, the drug mafia are all being discussed. It is the misfortune of the state but the question to ask is who brings this to Maharashtra. It is up to the ruling party and administration to curb this,” she said.

“The politics of the state has hit a new low. The ruling parties are accusing us. In all this chaos, the development of the state has lagged behind and unwanted issues are coming up. It would be better for rival parties to focus on development than to accuse us,” the BJP politician from Marathwada said.

BJP MLA Nitesh Rane called minister Nawab Malik a traitor. “One who supports terrorists is a traitor. We are not required to answer his questions, expel him to Pakistan,” he said.
