I will now retire from politics: BJP MLA Dadarao Keche

Maharashtra: The most important incident among the many incidents that happened during the elections in Arvi assembly constituency happened today. BJP MLA Dadarao Keche expressed his feelings in a press conference. He said, I will now retire from politics. Will not join any party. Will do social service. Worked for BJP since 1983. Made the party in every village. Made the organization. Became MLA in 2009. Fell in 2014, but since our government came in the state, Arvith did a lot of development work. I was elected in 2019. In the last two and a half years, he has done various works again and again. I was confident that the party will give me a ticket. But it was rejected. Actually, state president Bawankule, Devendra Fadnavis were saying that Dadarao ticket is for you.

Candidate Sumit Wankhede met me six months ago and told me that you are the candidate, not me. However, held 23 meetings for the candidate given by the party. Went everywhere. Elections were held and I started doubting. Some party leaders started whispering. So I think it would have been better if the application was not withdrawn. Now I don’t want what I was admitted to. Admitted to the Legislative Council. But what to believe? That’s what happened. It’s been 71 years. Keche said that now he has decided to stop. Keche refused to make a clear allegation. But now he will not comment on anything, he said while talking to Loksatta.

For about 42 years, the equation of BJP i.e. K was the norm in Arvi constituency. When the party was in majority in the Zilla Parishad, Keche’s group was given the post of president and vice-president. They will say, it is predetermined. Due to this, when it was seen that no new leader was being prepared, senior leaders planned to nominate Sudhir Dive in the 2019 election. But BJP leaders say that Keche had said that this was the last chance. However, Keche maintained the claim by clarifying that he had not said anything like that. So that he is not sidelined, he was immediately presented in the court of Amit Shah in Ahmedabad and
