BJP’s Subhash Faldesai, Dattaprasad Naik and Kiran Kandolkar addressed the media expressing anger over Congress’ tactics.
Reacting to State Congress president Shantaram Naik’s allegation that BJP was colluding with the Adani Group on expansion of coal handling berths at MPT, Dattaprasad said “Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar has already exposed Congress on the coal handling issue. Moreover, the cargo handling berths expansion was not by Adani but Congress’ former MP Jindal.”
