Kulkarni, on Friday, had expressed her disappointment over being "sidelined" by the party. Kulkarni represented the Kothrud assembly constituency as a BJP MLA from 2014 to 2019, but was denied a ticket in the 2019 elections to make way for the then Maharashtra BJP chief Chandrakant Patil.
She expressed disappointment after she found her name missing from the invitation brochure for the inauguration of the new flyover at Chandni Chowk.
On Saturday, the multi-level flyover built at Chandni Chowk was inaugurated at the hands of Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari along with Deputy CMs Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar. Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde joined the event via video-link.
Kulkarni was also on the dais, but refused to comment on her social media post. The BJP leader in a social media post on Friday said, "I never publicly uttered anything when I was sidelined or when decisions were taken without my consent. Now, I feel the need to talk to you all as I was disappointed when I saw the posters for the inauguration of the Chandani Chowk flyover. The credit of this project fully goes to Nitin Gadkariji and Devendra Fadnavis, but who had taken this project to respected Gadkariji?"
"Though I am on a national post, I was not given such an all-access pass during Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Amit Shah's visit to Pune," she claimed.
"It is easy for 'them' as I neither have muscle power nor money power. I come from a middle class family, which entered politics with an ideology. I will continue to do the duties entrusted on me," she wrote.
