Wait a few days, 20-25 Opposition MLAs will join Shinde-BJP government, says Bachchu Kadu

Mumbai: From time to time, the Thackeray group, the NCP and the Congress - forming the Maha Vikas Aghadi - has laid claim that the Shinde faction-BJP government in the state may fall anytime. On the other hand, Shinde faction and BJP have expressed confidence that its government will complete its stipulated term.

However, now, MLA and former minister Bachchu Kadu has created ripples in the political fabric of Maharashtra by claiming that 20 to 25 opposition MLAs may join the Shinde factionBJP in the next 15 days. Bachchu Kadu also said that the entry of these legislators into the government and cabinet expansion are getting delayed due to the pending case in the court.

Recently, Chief Minister Eknath Shinde was challenged by Aaditya Thackeray, who had asked Shinde to contest against Thackeray from Worli seat. Bachchu Kadu has also reacted to this. “Challenging has become old now. There is no point in these challenges. This is a bit childish. He should be challenged when the assembly elections are announced. If such is your (Aaditya’s) spirit, then contest from Eknath Shinde’s seat,” said Bachchu Kadu bitterly.
