Sushilkumar Shinde appeals to voters to elect him one last time

Criticising both contestants, the veteran Congress leader said that Mr Ambedkar had already given up the agenda of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar.

Congress is a party of donkeys, says Ambedkar

Ambedkar and Shinde are contesting Lok Sabha election against each other in Solapur constituency.

VBA-AIMIM’s political fight against Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is very serious.

Mr Athawale, who has not been given a ticket by the BJP, said, “Kanchan Kul will win by a historic margin.

Prakash Ambedkar is the grandson of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar.

Mr Ambedkar said that he made the comment in a general sense, but the EC part of the statement was singled out.

Owaisi and Dalit leader Prakash Ambedkar head the VBA. The front has said that it will contest all 48 Lok Sabha seats in Maharashtra.

Citing intelligence inputs, Mr Ambedkar said that the government failed to check the details despite receiving specific information.

The Dalit leader further said that the main fight of the BVA will be against the BJP-Shiv Sena alliance in the LS polls.

Mr Ambedkar alleged that the Congress wanted to bring in presidential democracy in the country when Indira Gandhi was the Prime Minister.
