Sitting Hingoli MP Hemant Patil, whom the Shiv Sena replaced with Baburao Kadam Kohalikar as the party nominee for the Lok Sabha seat, said on Thursday that his candidature should not have been announced earlier. The Shiv Sena, led by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, had on March 28 renominated Patil from Hingoli, which will go to polls in the second phase on April 26.
A video of Maharashtra Minority Development Minister Abdul Sattar has surfaced online that shows him asking police to "break the bones" of unruly revellers at a dance event in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.
The video shows Sattar giving instructions to police using the microphone from the stage. The clip also shows police mildly lathi-charging some viewers.
