NAGPUR: Maharashtra Congress chief Nana Patole on Tuesday said his party does not feel the need to reply to Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut’s statements as “Raut is not an issue for us”.
He was reacting to Raut’s remark that the Sena (UBT) planned to contest local body elections in the state on its own, instead of in alliance with its Maha Vikas Aghadi partners.
Though the Uddhav Thackeray-led party and Congress are allies and contested the last year’s assembly elections together, Raut and Patole have often taken swipes at each other.
