Maha BJP chief accuses NCP of backstabbing OBCs

Nagpur, Jun 9 (PTI) BJP's Maharashtra unit chief Chandrashekar Bawankule on Friday accused the NCP of backstabbing the OBCs and sought to know whether Sharad Pawar, who heads the party, would offer his post to anybody from this community.

Speaking to reporters here, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader termed the two-day workshop held last week in Nagpur by the Nationalist Congress Party's Other Backward Classes (OBC) cell as just "show-off", and claimed that no decision was taken in the interest of this community during the meeting.

"The OBC workshop of the NCP was just a show-off aimed at getting this community's votes. But members of the OBC community will never support the NCP as it has always backstabbed them," he said.
