Sanjay Raut accuses Ajit Pawar of kidnapping NCP MLAs

Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut alleged that only 5 out of 8 MLAs who had gone with Ajit Pawar came back, they were sort of abducted. He also dared him to prove majority. "Of the 8 MLAs who had gone with Ajit Pawar, 5 of them have come back. They were lied to, put in a car, and sort of kidnapped. 'Agar himmat hai to vidhaan sabha mein majority saabit kar ke dikhaye'," said Sanjay Raut. He added, "We are in touch with Dhananjay Munde and there is a possibility of even Ajit Pawar coming back. Ajit has been blackmailed; it will be exposed who is behind this, in Saamna newspaper soon."
