BJP Demands Action Against Shiv Sena Leaders Over Meeting
The BJP, a major political party in India, wants the Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Eknath Shinde, to take action against two leaders from the Shiv Sena party.
These leaders, Sanjay Shirsat and Bachchu Kadu, visited a man named Abhijeet Dipke, who started a party called Cockroach Janta Party.
The BJP says this meeting was not good for the coalition government, called Mahayuti.
They think the leaders should be disciplined.
The BJP’s State Revenue Minister, Chandrashekhar Bawankule, said the leaders should face strict action.
The leaders are important local politicians: Shirsat is a district minister and Kadu is a member of the state council.
The BJP wants to keep the coalition strong and believes the leaders’ actions could hurt it.
