Plain Speak

Pankaja Munde

“While seeking votes for Dhananjay Munde, I feel like I am receiving a send-off party and being freed of a responsibility. I fought the Lok Sabha election against my wish. I did not cry after my defeat, but cried when someone committed suicide after my loss. I don’t feel anything about the (Parli) constituency going to Dhananjay in seat-sharing because I am an MLC now, and we have spent a lot of energy against each other.”

Pankaja Munde, Leader, BJP



Riteish Deshmukh

“Lord Krishna said karma (work) is dharma (religion). The one who works sincerely is doing dharma. Those who don’t work need religion. Those who claim their religion is in danger, it is their party that is in danger, and they are praying to their dharma to save their party and themselves. Tell them we will take care of our religion, you first speak about development.”

Riteish Deshmukh, Actor




Ashok Gehlot

“The BJP (earlier) toppled governments in Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Goa through horse-trading. It was a black chapter in the country’s history. In Maharashtra too the BJP brought down the MVA government. It is time for revenge and time to teach the BJP a lesson by making the MVA victorious. This Assembly poll will shape the direction and condition of India.”

Ashok Gehlot, Leader, Congress




Asaduddin Owaisi

“Our ancestors did jihad against Britishers and Fadnavis is now teaching us about jihad. (PM) Narendra Modi, (Union minister) Amit Shah, and Devendra Fadnavis together cannot defeat me in a debate. From where did ‘vote jihad and dharmayuddha’ come in democracy? You purchased MLAs; should we call you a thief?”

Asaduddin Owaisi, Chief, AIMIM
