Operation tiger not easy, Sanjay Raut takes presser with 3 Lok Sabha MPs in Delhi
MUMBAI: Amid reports of Operation Tiger being underway to split the Shiv Sena (UBT), and that 6 Sena (UBT) MPs reached Delhi on Wednesday, the Sena (UBT) held a press conference in Delhi with three Lok Sabha MPs Anil Desai, Arvind Sawant and Rajabhau Waze. Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut said that ‘Operation tiger’ won’t be so easy. Raut said that Maharashtra MPs were being bought and sold and MPs had refused to sit in the chartered flights to Delhi unless they were paid Rs 15 crore as advance. Raut claimed that all MPs were elected on the Mashaal (flaming torch) and under Uddhav Thackeray ’s leadership. Raut said in the meeting with Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday, the MPs swore in the name of their children, wives and Saibaba, Tulja Bhavani and Balasaheb Thackeray and claimed that they were loyal to Uddhav Thackeray. Raut said if any of these MPs still defect, then the people of Maharashtra will not remain silent anymore. Raut said those who want to go must resign and leave the party.
“Today, Shiv Sena (UBT) group leader Arvind Sawant, chief whip Anil Desai and Nashik MP Rajabhau Waze are with me. Since yesterday, such news or rumors have been spreading everywhere that 'Operation Tiger' is going on in Delhi. But it is not that easy to break the Shiv Sena (UBT). Basically, even those spreading these rumors have admitted that we are still 'Tigers'. We have not received any official information about any such developments. We are seeing and hearing all this through you (the media),” Raut said.
