Shiv Sena (UBT) MLA Anil Parab raised the issue of Sanjay Gaikwad’s video in the Maharashtra Legislative Council on Wednesday. He accused the government of political arbitrariness. On this, CM Fadnavis said in the House, ‘Such conduct does not give the right message. Such behaviour is unacceptable and not respectable for anyone. As an MLA, Gaikwad’s act has tarnished the reputation of all MLAs.’ The CM said, ‘I urge you (Legislative Council Chairman Ram Shinde) to investigate the issue. If there is a problem, action can be taken. When public representatives beat up people, the wrong message goes out to the people. You (Legislative Council Chairman) and the Speaker (Rahul Narvekar) should take cognizance of this and take action.’ Now read what the MLA said on the matter…
MLA Gaikwad said on Wednesday- Last night at around 9:30 pm, I ordered food. When I put a bite of dal-rice in my mouth, it felt very dirty. When I ate the second bite, I vomited. I smelled the food and it was rotten. It was stinking. I had earlier also told the canteen people to give fresh food. They give 15-day-old chicken, 20-day-old mutton, 10-day-old eggs, and four-day-old vegetables. Even after explaining so much, they did this. I took the food downstairs and called the manager. Asked- Is the food from your place? He said- Yes, I asked him to smell it and he said- It stinks. I asked other employees and customers to smell it. Everyone said- It is not worth eating. When you don’t understand Hindi, Marathi, English, then it is Shiv Sena style. Complained many times in four years. Complained to the committee chairman and MD also. When a person does not improve, then this is our style. MLA said- I did not beat him seeing Hindi or Marathi
MLA said- Poor quality food was being served there. Employees, officers, everyone from the whole state come there and eat food. It is a government canteen, the quality of food there should be good. I have no regrets about my actions. He said- I am a public representative. When someone does not understand democratic language, then I have to explain in this language. If these people do this again, then I will beat him again. I did not beat him seeing whether he was Marathi or Hindi. Gaikwad has a long association with controversies… 1. Reward of ?11 lakh for cutting Rahul Gandhi’s tongue
Last year, MLA Gaikwad created a controversy by announcing a reward of Rs 11 lakh to the person who cuts the tongue of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. In September 2024, Rahul had commented on reservation. During his visit to America, he had said in a university that Congress will think about ending reservation only when everyone in the country starts getting equal opportunities. At present, such is not the situation in India, on this Gaikwad had said – Rahul wants to end reservation. This has revealed the real face of Congress. Whoever brings Rahul Gandhi’s tongue after cutting it, I will give him a reward of Rs 11 lakh. 2. Claim of hunting tiger
In February 2024, Gaikwad claimed that he had hunted a tiger in 1987 and wears its tooth around his neck. After this, a case was registered against Gaikwad under the Wildlife Protection Act. 3. Policeman seen washing the car
Last year itself, in a viral video, a policeman was seen washing the car of an MLA. There was a lot of commotion about this too. Later, Gaikwad had said that the policeman cleaned the car on his own will after vomiting inside the car. ————————————————— Read this news related to Maharashtra politics too… MNS workers beat up a Gujarati shopkeeper in Thane, the shopkeeper had asked- Why is Marathi necessary?
