Shiv Sena leader Anand Dubey has praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the mutual respect and political relations between the leaders despite different ideologies in Maharashtra politics. He said that the tradition of Indian politics has been that even if ideologies are different, leaders are not personal enemies of each other.
Shiv Sena leader Anand Dubey, while talking to reporters, said that by showing respect towards Sharad Pawar, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given the message that personal relationships and human sensitivities also have importance in politics. He said that the Prime Minister telling Sharad Pawar that you should not worry, Supriya Sule and I will take care of the country, reflects the feeling that the country belongs to everyone and its 140 crore citizens are like a family.
He said that this also reflects the Prime Minister's principle of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas'. Taking aim at the Congress, Dubey said that the party should understand the difference between political protest and personal comment. The kind of abusive language used by Congress leaders against Prime Minister Narendra Modi is not appropriate.
He said that Prime Minister Modi asks about the well being of opposition leaders from time to time. Despite this, making personal comments against him reflects the political thinking of the opposition. NDA is like a family and its entire organization works considering the country as its family. The Prime Minister has shown that in politics there should be room not only for bitterness but also for love and respect.
Anand Dubey wished Sharad Pawar's speedy recovery and said that he keeps learning something or the other from him. Describing politics as a game of possibilities, he said that future possibilities are always explored in it.
Meanwhile, while speaking on the political strategy of NCP, Hasan Mushrif said that there has been a discussion on strengthening the party under the leadership of Sunetra Pawar. He expressed confidence that the party will contest strongly in all the upcoming elections, especially the Zilla Parishad elections.
Referring to the meeting held with Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Hasan Mushrif said that the issue of Ajit Pawar's plane crash was also raised in it. He demanded that the investigation report of the incident should be submitted soon and the public should get answers without delay. After Diwali, all the MLAs, ministers and senior party leaders will meet the Chief Minister and inquire about the progress of the investigation.
