Sanjay Raut is in charge of the Goa state to maintain Shiv Sena’s stand in the state, was in the state of Maharashtra to look after the Shiv Sena’s election campaign for the upcoming Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation elections in 2022. 

 

“In Goa, we used to go for alliances, that is the reason why our reach was not maximized in the state. So we have decided to contest 22 to 25 seats alone in Goa that is on our own,” stated Raut. When questioned about the return of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Trinamool Congress in Goa as the elections approach, Raut replied that Goa has become the center of attraction, it has become a laboratory for everyone. Someone comes from Goa, someone from Delhi, but Goa and Maharashtra share an emotional relationship, and from the past, it has been the same way.
