Speaking to reporters in Pune ahead of the Maharashtra assembly elections 2024, Supriya Sule said the BJP and its partners have nothing today to talk about the opposition.
"In the last elections, issues like corruption were raised by them. Today they are not doing anything because they themselves are completely engulfed in corruption and the BJP and its allies do not have anything to talk against us," the Lok Sabha member from Baramati said, reported PTI.
On the Mahayuti's claims that the opposition MVA has copied the ruling alliance's schemes like Ladki Bahin and put them in its manifesto, Sule said it was the Congress and NCP which provided the biggest loan waiver to farmers during their tenure in power.
It was the Congress and NCP which had given a price guarantee for the agriculture produce, she said.
Asked about the MVA's opponents raising the issue of "urban Naxals" and a "red book" of the Constitution displayed by some Congress leaders in their campaign, Sule claimed the BJP's mentality is anti-women, reported PTI.
Their "motormouths" keep on insulting icons like Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Shahu Maharaj, Mahatma Phule and Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar, she alleged.
"The BJP and its alliance partners have been insulting all these icons and propagating distorted history," Sule charged, reported PTI.
She also claimed some BJP MPs were threatening women in Kolhapur and added that the opposition will go to court and also complain to the Election Commission.
Asked about the Centre's move to abrogate Article 370 (which provided special status to Jammu and Kashmir) being raised by the BJP in the state polls campaign, Sule said they do not have any agenda and have nothing to show.
The Maharashtra assembly elections 2024 are scheduled for November 20, with votes to be counted on November 23.
