The party's troubles have increased due to the rebellion of former two-time BJP MP and several-time MLA Gopal Shetty in the Maharashtra Assembly elections. The party has made Sanjay Upadhyay its candidate from Borivali constituency. Angered by this, Gopal Shetty has filed his nomination as an independent candidate. To convince him, BJP leader and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis met him on Saturday and tried to convince him, but according to the information received, Gopal Shetty is not ready to withdraw his nomination.
Shetty is angry that he was not nominated first for the Lok Sabha and then for the Assembly. On Saturday, Gopal Shetty met Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis at Sagar Bungalow.
He said that he had gone to wish Devendra Fadnavis. They said that Devendra Fadnavis is the Deputy Chief Minister, but for me he is the Chief Minister. I wouldn't like it if he came to my house, so I went to his house.
Gopal Shetty said that even if the party removes me, I will not leave the party. I am still determined. The work I am doing is for the interest of the party. There are some people in the party, they are harming the party. My fight is against them. He will do whatever he has to do for the interest of the party. If I move forward, it will be in the interest of the party.
Gopal Shetty said that I have already written a letter to all the big leaders requesting them to investigate all my properties and take action. I have also written to Devendra Fadnavis, investigate, seize all my property and then take action.
He further said that it is a matter of pride for North Mumbai that Piyush ji contested this seat. Amit Shah is coming on 9th. I would urge everyone to welcome him. It is a matter of pride for the residents of Borivali that Amit Shah is coming to Borivali.
He said that he is coming after the removal of Article 370 from Kashmir, I appeal to all the workers and people to welcome him. I don't become great by insulting anyone, I become great by working. Can't remove lotus from my heart and mind. But I am fighting against some leaders.
