Pawan Khera: 'Operation Keechad': Congress targets BJP after Shinde camp triggers new Uddhav Sena crisis
- Senior Congress leader Pawan Khera criticized the BJP on Monday following "Operation Tiger," a move led by ally Eknath Shinde to further weaken Uddhav Thackeray's camp.
- Khera likened the current political maneuvering to "Operation Lotus" and described the actions as "dacoity" aimed at destabilizing opposition forces.
- The conflict highlights the ongoing volatility within Maharashtra's political landscape and the BJP's broader strategy for a "Congress-mukt Bharat."
- This escalation suggests continued political friction and legal battles as the Congress and Thackeray's camp resist the BJP-led alliance's efforts to consolidate power.
