‘Having talks with supporters’: Deora
Deora told reporters that he is having talks with his supporters, despite having recently voiced his disapproval over the Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) staking a claim to the Mumbai South Lok Sabha constituency.
The Congress leader is not happy about the Uddhav Thackeray-led group’s claim to run in the upcoming general elections for the Mumbai South constituency, which Deora represented before 2014. Deora stated in a video statement released on Sunday that his party would also be able to announce candidates for seats if the “alliance partner” continued to make such claims.
