Milind Deora hits back, rakes up Shiv Sena MP's criminal cases
The Congress party nominee from south Mumbai Milind Deora on Monday alleged that the sitting MP and his opponent Arvind Sawant has a dubious criminal record and is unsuitable to be a lawmaker. Deora has appealed to the voters of South Mumbai to make a socially conscious and morally upright choice.
Pointing to Sawant's affidavit, Deora said there are 13 criminal charges against the Shiv Sena leader and demanded that the sitting MP explain if he tried to "abuse and misuse" his influence in the Maharashtra government to get the cases withdrawn.
