Elections are near: BJP now plays Marathi card on saffron flag issue

7:57 PM Posted by ukmad




As the MES and the Shivsena were agitating in front of the new corporation building demanding for the Saffron flag to be hoisted, it was surprise to see MP Suresh angadi and MLA Sanjay Patil come there and support the hoisting of the Saffron flag.

To go further Angadi said that, if L K Advani becomes the PM even the saffron flag will be hoisted on the parliament. Suresh Angadi and Snajay Pati land various others were arrested from the site and later released. There was complete road blockade on the road from RTO circle to Kolhapur Cross.

The Kannada Rakhsene Vedike burnt effigies of MLA Sanjay Patil and Suresh Angadi as they demanded the hoisting of the saffron flag. The KRV said they will never vote both of them again.
The BJP supporting the MS and Shivsena is nothing but playing the Marathi card as elections are near, and it’s for sure that if the Marathi votes don’t go in favor of BJP, then it would be very difficult for Angadi to win. MP Suresh Angadi even spoke in Marathi at the occasion and even Sanjay Patil.

May what it be, but the BCC is in news again for other reasons than it should be and the Marathi-Kannada spat will be the pivotal point again during the elections. Normally this has not been the issue for the Loksabha polls till date, but this time it seems Marathi- Kannada will affect and would be a major item of discussion during the upcoming elections.
