Mumbai Uddhav Thackeray’s Shiv Sena leader Arvind Sawant has apologized after seeing a case being registered against him and becoming a big issue before the Maharashtra Assembly elections. Arvind Sawant had allegedly made derogatory remarks about Shaina NC, who had joined Eknath Shinde’s Shiv Sena from BJP. On this, Shayna NC had filed a case against Arvind Sawant. Now Arvind Sawant has apologized and said that from Friday such an atmosphere was created that I had insulted a woman. Arvind Sawant said that he had never done this in his life. The leader of Uddhav Thackeray’s Shiv Sena said that if anyone’s sentiments have been hurt, he apologizes. Listen to what else Arvind Sawant said.

The issue of alleged derogatory language by Arvind Sawant about Shaina NC has become heated. BJP and Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde even cornered Uddhav Thackeray in this matter. Eknath Shinde said in the statement that if Balasaheb Thackeray had been there today, he would have broken the face of anyone talking like this. At the same time, BJP leaders were saying that leaders of Uddhav Thackeray’s party insult women in the same way. On this, there was also a statement from Uddhav Thackeray’s close aide and MP Sanjay Raut. Sanjay Raut had said on Saturday that Arvind Sawant did not insult anyone. Sanjay Raut was arguing that goods brought from outside are called imported goods. He had also said that Shaina NC has come from outside and become the candidate of Shinde’s Shiv Sena. In such a situation, how was the woman insulted?

Despite this statement of Sanjay Raut, if Arvind Sawant has apologized, then it clearly means that he must have been asked to do so by the high command of the party. Actually, women are highly respected in Maharashtra and Arvind Sawant’s statement about Shaina NC could have become a problem for Mahavikas Aghadi. However, it is possible to reduce Arvind Sawant’s troubles just by apologizing, only if BJP leaves this issue and withdraws the case filed against Shaina NC Sawant. At present it does not seem possible to have both.
