Karnataka has always hated Maharashtra, but in the coming years, the BJP has decided to win the Karnataka assembly election on the money of Maharashtra and the order to provide financial logistics for it has also been given directly to the Chief Minister of Maharashtra from the BJP high command.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis went to Delhi to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Modi asked these two to meet BJP leader and Home Minister Amit Shah. In this meeting, Shah discussed the Karnataka elections to be held soon.
Since Shinde became the Chief Minister of Maharashtra, three elections have been held across the country. In these three elections, Shinde has not yet given a single penny for BJP’s party fund, Shah expressed his displeasure in strong words. It has been confirmed by ‘Sprouts’ that he has ordered the collection of party funds immediately for the upcoming assembly elections in Karnataka.
Another important reason why the central leadership of the BJP has made Shinde the Chief Minister over a senior leader like Devendra Fadnavis is that the party expects more funds than before. Therefore, BJP seniors have high expectations from Shinde. Shinde has considered this order a priority to fulfill these expectations and has started preparations for it. Preparations have been started for awarding contracts on a large scale. Accordingly, development works will start and this election of Karnataka, which hates Maharashtra, will be contested on the money of Maharashtra.
Targets for party funds are given to the top leaders of various parties from each state for the elections to be held in India. This responsibility was on Vilasrao Deshmukh when Congress was in power in Maharashtra. Then 2014 dawned and Devendra Fadnavis became the Chief Minister, obviously, he had fulfilled this responsibility for BJP at that time.
Amit Shah is considering Fadnavis as a contender for the post of Prime Minister in the future. So he brought forward Eknath Shinde to diminish Fadnavis’ leadership. Shinde has also accepted this challenge of the Chief Ministership, but he is constantly facing the displeasure of Fadnavis. Fadnavis has also played internal politics to make Shinde and his colleagues jerry-rigged. In addition, ‘Sprouts’ has got reliable information that due to this new challenge given by Amit Shah, Shinde has lost his sleep.
