OFF THE RECORD review on some of the headlines today….
Is it true?
BJP top brass in Maharashtra has been asked not to ‘fetch’ any more files of any Sena Minister. Is it true?
Fadnavis/Thackeray meet…
Recently everyone saw when Fadnavis & Uddhav Thackeray meet in public. The picture went viral on social media. As pointed out by a veteran journalist have a look at the picture of the meet once again. I have that picture. Notice the colour of the mask & tell me, was it unintentional or a mere coincidence or are we thinking way too much? 😉😊
Shivsainik destroy ‘Adani’ board at the airport.
Reason-Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport name was re-branded (& Not renamed) as Adani Airport. It is wrong (even the re-branding) and Adani has issued a clarification too that even though they have bought the shares & ownership from GVK, previous owners of the airport, they have just rebranded it & not renamed it. Sena says it is an insult to Marathi Manoos. Yes, Shivsena is saying it–Laughable isn’t it? Shivsena should stop playing the Marathi Manoos card now. If gelatine sticks are going to be kept outside Mukesh Ambani’s house, if Adani is going to be treated like this, heckling the Corporates this way to make an impression or grab moneybags is surely not the way forward for the MVA Government. Mind you, on the other hand it is the same government who when they had recommended 99 names for Padma awards to the Centre, one of the name was that of Mukesh Ambani. Ok, if attacking ‘Gujarati or any ‘gullible’ Business community’ is NOT an agenda, then we haven’t seen anyone going to Nagpada or that Govandi or that Dharavi and asking the shopkeepers to write their shop board names in Marathi. Don’t scare the decent lot, go after people who right below your nose do not care one bit for the law.
Sanjay Raut’s tweets
महाराष्ट्रात तातडीने नशा मुक्ती कार्यक्रम हाती घेणे गरजेचे आहे नाहीतर…It means, Maharashtra Government should immediately undertake ‘Nasha Mukti’ program. Sir, why don’t we start with sacking of Cabinet Minister in your Government? Isn’t his son-in-law, a known drug trafficker and peddler and financier, and isn’t he behind the bars for doing this? You tell me, how is it possible that a person does not know how his son-in-law earns his bread? Nonsense! People like Prasad Lad and others can be taken care later, I feel, first you should immediately keep your house clean. By the way, what is all about tweet by MLA Nitesh Rane? Do the BEST plots now belong to Kanakia’s, BMC Contracts are decided by none other than favourite (again drug abuser) Dino, Night parties Sena’s Prince is joined by Patani, Kapoor & Jacqueline? My sources too echoed the same what Rane tweeted.
But one thing I felt nice about you in the last week, not nice, I felt proud —When the all party meet happened at Delhi, it was so nice to see you talking to the Media and even the likes of Rahul Gandhi was watching you from behind. There as a Marathi Manoos, I felt proud! Also, you are right, BJP will never ever go after Sena Bhavan, ever!
Mohit Bhartiya Birthday !
For the first time ever in my life I went to somebody to wish on his birthday at his office. No, I never do that. But the magnomisity of the person just attracted me to him and a visit was due. I am following him on Twitter and looking at the personalities from the spheres meeting him I’m sure he is going the right way. When he was just sidelined by the BJP even after doing ‘so many things for the party’ he continued his faith in his leader, Devendra Fadnavis. Due to his immense rise within a short period did upset the party bracket, few of them even went ahead and tried to destroy his political career, he kept his faith and loyalty to the party unlike many who change loyalties with a drop of a hat. But I guess, Mohit Bhartiya has made peace with that and now with the help of so many youths in the party of Mumbai backing him, he is in full action mode for the Mumbai BJP. It would be unfair to not include him in the BJP core committee for the upcoming BMC elections. He will be an asset to city president Mangal Prabhat Lodha & the Core Committee as he has the manpower and the muscle power to fight at the ground level & yes for the uninformed, Jharkhand was a rumour!😉
Narayan Rane the firepower.
Back with a bang! Yes, he didn’t think twice to visit the flood hit region of Maharshtra and he didn’t think twice to reprimand his own party member LoP Pravin Darekar on that visit. Happened so, when Rane, Fadnavis & Darekar reached the flood hit spot, none of the officials from the administration were present. Rane called up few of them and was giving them a ‘dose’. Darekar tried to intervene the phone call standing nearby and Rane not even thinking twice and reprimanded him in front of everyone. It was necessary. Rane is back and how…But yes, for some to say that Narayan Rane is a card to be used against the Sena for the BMC, only time will tell. My money is on Nitesh and Nilesh Rane for that role.
