Raut Working With Pawar To Replace Uddhav As CM: BJP Leader Chandrakant Patil

Mumbai: Maharashtra BJP chief Chandrakant Patil on Monday alleged that Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut is working on NCP chief Sharad Pawar’s agenda to replace Uddhav Thackeray as state CM.

Addressing the media here, Patil said, “As per our analysis, Sanjay Raut working on the agenda given to him by Sharad Pawar, as Uddhav has completed 2.5 years as CM. They want to remove him and as they can’t make Supriya Sule CM directly, Sanjay Raut will be made CM which ultimately will be like Sule as CM.”

Lok Sabha MP and Nationalist Congress Party leader Supriya Sule is Sharad Pawar’s daughter.

Notably, after the Maharashtra Chief Minister was absent from the state assembly due to health issues on the first day of the winter session, Patil had said that Uddhav Thackeray should hand over his charge to someone else till he recovers.

Taking a jibe at the ruling Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) in the state, Patil had also alleged that Uddhav Thackeray does not trust anyone in his government, adding that the Chief Minister should give charge to his son and state minister Aaditya Thackeray and if he does not, then he does not trust him as well.
