Shiv Sena News | Rebel Sena MP Cites Development, Funds Crunch For Exit

Rebel Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Deshmukh has defended his decision to break ranks, insisting that the move was driven by development concerns rather than pressure or personal grievances. He claimed opposition MPs were not receiving adequate funds, making it difficult to address the needs of over 2,200 villages in his constituency. Deshmukh denied allegations of agency pressure and refrained from criticising Uddhav Thackeray or Aaditya Thackeray, maintaining that the decision was taken collectively to ensure development projects and funding reach the constituency.
