Shiv Sena Leader Accuses BJP of Poaching MPs with 15-15 Crore Offers, Warns of Consequences

This comes at a time when Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut has claimed that his party's MPs are being offered 15-15 crores to switch sides. This comes at a time when speculations of a possible split in the Uddhav Thackeray-led party are rife. Sanjay Raut wrote on an X handle: "Apna Sapna Money Money! It is shocking and disgusting that MPs from Maharashtra are being offered 15-15 crores to switch sides tonight." Sanjay Raut's allegation comes at a time when political speculation is rife that some Shiv Sena (UBT) MPs may break away to form a separate faction. Earlier, Sanjay Raut had said that MLAs and MPs come and go, but the party remains. Hitting out at the BJP, Raut accused it of breaking political parties and warned that when "our day comes, we will show how the party goes," according to Thackeray (UBT sources), its first rebel MP will meet the Lok Sabha Speaker after the entire process.
