Sanjay Nirupam's Old Video Abusing Raut Sparks Political Row
An old video of Sanjay Nirupam, a Shiv Sena leader, using bad words against another Shiv Sena leader, Sanjay Raut, has gone viral.
Nirupam says he did this because Raut first insulted Eknath Shinde and his workers.
People on social media are talking about this, and it's causing more problems between political groups in Maharashtra.
Nirupam says he meant what he said and that Raut is not a good person.
Raut hasn't said anything new about this yet, but the fight between these political groups is getting worse.
