My name is in South Pune, political assassination is not possible; Vasant More’s counterattack

Today, there is a huge circle around the personal name Vasant More in South Pune. There are many people in this area who believe in me. Therefore, my political assassination etc. cannot happen, said MNS leader Vasant More. A few days back, Rupali Patil-Thombre, who had defected from MNS to NCP, had made a comment regarding Vasant More. This statement was made by Vasant More while replying to this comment.

Vasant More and Rupali Patil have different views. I have been leading for the last 15 years. I am an activist among ordinary citizens. There is a ring around the personal name of Vasant More in the area from which I get elected. People in South Pune consider Vasant More. That is why in the 2017 elections, NCP candidates were elected in three wards of my ward. Vasant More won in one ward. I have built MNS’s stronghold in this NCP’s stronghold. Therefore, in my case, political assassination or suicide is not possible, said Vasant More.

• What did Rupali Thombre-Patil say?
  
  Raj Thackeray had removed Vasant More from the post of Pune city president. After that Rupali Thombre-Patil had reminded an old statement. When I joined NCP from MNS, you had said, you will have political suicide, but Vasant Bhau, now your party has killed you ..! ‘ Saying this, Rupali Patil chased Vasant More away. He also said that he will always stand behind you as a sister.

• … So my workers are ‘hurt’: Vasant More

My workers were hurt after I was removed from the post of mayor yesterday. I was fired, the word hit them hard. But I was not expelled from the party. It is said that if you step down from a position, you will step down.
