'Back-stabbed' by BJP, Sena to contest all future polls in Goa as state needs the party: Aaditya
The Hindu
"Shiv Sena had not concentrated on Goa in the past due to its friendship with BJP.”
Shiv Sena leader Aaditya Thackeray on Saturday said his party could not focus on Goa earlier due to its friendship with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), but after the latter "back-stabbed", the Sena has now decided to contest all future polls in the coastal state - right from panchayat level to general elections.
He said Goa needs the Sena, because despite being in power at the Centre and in the state, the BJP has failed to bring any sustainable development.
The Shiv Sena fell out with BJP after the 2019 Maharashtra polls and tied up with Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and the Congress to form Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government in the neighbouring state.
