MVA Decides Not to Take Oath as a Mark of Protest Against ‘Vote-Stealing’ Government: Nana Patole

Published

on

Despite the BJP alliance forming the government after the state assembly elections, the public sentiment is that this government does not reflect their votes. It is not a government of the people’s mandate. The sentiment of the people in Markadwadi mirrors that of the majority in the state. Respecting public opinion, members of the Mahavikas Aghadi (MVA) have decided not to take their oath today, stated Nana Patole, President of the Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee.

Speaking to the media in the Assembly premises, Nana Patole said that MVA leaders would meet with NCP President Sharad Pawar and Shiv Sena Chief Uddhav Thackeray to strategize the next steps. He added, “The BJP alliance government is not the people’s government. After coming to power through vote theft, they wasted crores of rupees on an extravagant swearing-in ceremony at Azad Maidan. Meanwhile, suicides among youth and farmers have increased, with 773 farmers ending their lives in the Nagpur region alone. Yet, the BJP alliance remains indifferent and chose to celebrate their government formation lavishly.”

Markadwadi’s Fight.

“The responsibility to protect democracy and voting rights lies with us,” Patole said. He emphasized Congress’ resolve to spread the spark ignited in Markadwadi across the nation. Discussions with Rahul Gandhi, Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, have already been held, and preparations for a movement demanding ballot paper voting are underway in Delhi. Once everything is in place, a decision will be made to make the Markadwadi movement a nationwide one, he stated.

Commenting on the Income Tax Department’s return of Ajit Pawar’s seized assets worth ₹1,000 crores, Patole said, “Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s slogan of ‘Na khaunga, na khane dunga’ (Neither will I indulge in corruption, nor allow others to) does not apply to his own people. This is an attempt to cover up the corrupt dealings of leaders allied with the BJP,” he added.

Mumbai: The Mumbai-Delhi High Court has strongly criticized Red Chillies Entertainment Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan and others in the defamation case against NCB Zonal Director IRS officer Sameer Wankhede and said that artistic freedom does not mean mocking a person. After this, the High Court has ordered that the controversial footage related to Sameer Wankhede be removed from the controversial Netflix series The Bads of Bollywood. Sameer Wankhede had filed a petition in the High Court and pleaded that his character has been killed in The Bads of Bollywood and this series has been made to target him. The purpose is to humiliate and mock Sameer Wankhede. After watching some parts of this series, the High Court has ordered the removal of the controversial parts from the film.

Sameer Wankhede’s lawyer had told the court that the character portrayed in the film is a comparison to Sameer Wankhede and that this series has been created with the intention of tarnishing Wankhede’s image. The Bads of Bollywood is malicious, therefore, the above-mentioned controversial scenes and objectionable dialogues should be deleted from the series, on which the court has issued an order to delete the controversial and objectionable content and content. Earlier, while hearing Sameer Wankhede’s petition, the court had sent notices to Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies, Netflix, Meta, and social media platforms and directed them to file a response. To this, Red Chillies had called the film and series a drama and made it clear that it had nothing to do with the facts. However, despite this, the Delhi High Court inquired whether a film drama does not mean that someone’s character is killed and said this, it reprimanded Shah Rukh Khan and the film company. Sameer Wankhede tried to prove through his argument that the character portrayed in the film resembles Sameer Wankhede and that this character has been portrayed in a negative way to target him and in this, an attempt has been made to make fun of Sameer Wankhede through this character, which has humiliated Wankhede, which the court has accepted and issued a directive to delete the objectionable and controversial content. This is a big success for Sameer Wankhede, while Shah Rukh Khan has suffered a huge setback.
