Pune: Working president of NCP (SP) Supriya Sule ruled out the possibility of a similar division in her party when she said all their eight MPs are with them. She was speaking against the backdrop of a second split in Shiv Sena (UBT).Supriya claimed that the BJP has misused central agencies and offered huge amounts to split the opposition parties. “They (BJP) misused Income Tax department, CBI and ED to split our party but I do not know what model they have adopted this time to split Shiv Sena (UBT). I am not aware what they are offering but our eight MPs will continue to remain together,” she said.Six MPs rebelled against Uddhav Thackeray to join the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena but Supriya claimed that the Shiv Sena worker is with Shiv Sena (UBT).“All MVA constituents contested the 2024 Lok Sabha election unitedly. The entire Maharashtra supported us and voted in our favour. Unfortunately, those MPs who took so much effort to protect the Constitution have switched to the other side. The real Shiv Sainik remains loyal to our ideology and continues to be with the Thackerays.”The NCP (SP)’s working president said the fight to protect democracy will go on and if the struggle is honest, people will stand by them.The Baramati MP criticised the BJP over waterlogging in parts of Mumbai after the arrival of the monsoon. “Earlier, the blame would go to Shiv Sena but the BJP is in govt from panchayat to Parliament for 12 years and answerable for the lack of governance,” she added.
