Mumbai: The atmosphere in Maharashtra is currently very tense due to the assembly elections. Tuesday is the last day to file nominations. Therefore, many veterans have filed their nominations today. On the other hand, many leaders who did not get the nomination or whose tickets were cut have rebelled. Atul Shah rebelled after Shayna NC got the nomination from Shiv Sena in Mumbadevi constituency. On the other hand, former MP Gopal Shetty is upset because Sanjay Upadhye was given the nomination from Borivali assembly constituency and has filed his nomination as an independent. Meanwhile, before filing the application, Gopal Shetty has taken a tough stance that even if the party gives me a ticket now, I will not take the ticket.” Therefore, it is being said that Gopal Shetty has now given up on the party in a way.

So the decision was taken… :

People love me a lot. I have filed my nomination today for the love of the people. Wrong is happening in the Borivali assembly constituency. Everyone knows that. Saying that it is my effort to stay with the Bharatiya Janata Party and correct whatever is happening here, Gopal Shetty has filed his nomination as an independent candidate from the Borivali assembly constituency. My fight is not against any one person. It is against this decision. Sanjay Upadhye has been given the nomination from the BJP. He is a good worker. He has done good work. Also, from which party would I have contested the election. But I did not do so. Why do we have to import candidates here every time or why do we have to get external candidates? While interacting with the media, Gopal Shetty also said that I have taken this decision keeping in mind the public sentiment here. I have said. I want people to vote for me. Injustice is being done to the people of Borivali. That is why I have taken this stand. Now even if the party gives me a ticket, I will not withdraw, Gopal Shetty has made a big statement. Therefore, Shetty has now come out of the BJP in a way and has filed his nomination as an independent candidate.

Why do we have to import candidates?:

Meanwhile, the Borivali assembly constituency falls in the North Mumbai Lok Sabha constituency. Therefore, the BJP has considerable strength here, and the North Mumbai Lok Sabha constituency is considered a stronghold of the BJP. Piyush Goyal won here in the Lok Sabha elections by a big margin. There are many BJP MLAs in this constituency. But here, whether it is the Lok Sabha or the Assembly elections, why do we always have to import candidates or ask for external candidates? Gopal Shetty has raised this question. Local activists are not getting justice. Local activists are upset, so we have called for a rebellion, Gopal Shetty has said. Meanwhile, it will be interesting to see how Shetty’s party persuades or convinces him after he calls for a rebellion.

Mumbai: In the wake of the unavailability of train tickets for North Indians from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, Samajwadi Party legislator Raees Sheikh on Saturday demanded that the Railways run special trains from Mumbai to these states. Sheikh made the demand after images of crowding of people on train tracks and railway platforms and lack of basic civic amenities went viral on social media. A large number of people from the North Indian community are upset due to the lack of proper train services.

In his letter to Railway Minister Ashwini Vishnu, Sheikh said that railway stations like Bandra Terminus, Lokmanya Tilak Terminus (LTT) and Dadar are crowded with passengers for tickets. A large number of North Indians travel to Uttar Pradesh and Bihar during the summer, which coincides with the wedding season. Lack of sufficient trains and resulting overcrowding are causing severe hardship to the North Indian community in Mumbai, said MLA Raees Sheikh, who demanded that the Railways immediately run special trains from Mumbai to Gorakhpur, Patna and other places in Purvanchal, departing from Bandra, LTT and CST stations. Sheikh added, “The Railways should also set up proper help desks and GRP assistance booths at major stations in Mumbai to manage the crowd and assist passengers.” He further stressed on the need to add additional general and sleeper coaches in all trains going to UP to accommodate the rush. He also urged the Railways to take all necessary steps to ensure better coordination with the authorities concerned.
