Athawale denies Mahayuti rift, backs Sena's Sarvankar over Mahim seat

Quick Summary:

Union Minister Ramdas Athawale on Sunday denied reports of a rift in the ruling Mahayuti over the Mahim assembly constituency in Mumbai, which will see MNS leader Amit Thackarey taken on Shiv Sena's Sada Sarvankar.

The RPI (A) chief said three-time sitting MLA Sarvankar is a stronger candidate than Amit Thackeray, whose only qualification is that he is the son of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray.

Amit Thackeray is making his electoral debut, while Sarvankar is seeking re-election from Mahim.
