Maharashtra BJP leader Sudhir Mungantiwar on Tuesday claimed that Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sachin Ahir will one day switch over to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Mungantiwar made the statement while speaking in the council when Ahir tried to interrupt him during a discussion in the upper house of the Maharashtra legislature.
"A day will come when Sachin Ahir will be with the BJP. I am not joking," said Sudhir Mungantiwar.
The opposition Shiv Sena (UBT) legislator was not available for comment on Mungantiwar's claim.
