Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Pankaja Munde said she would have been hailed a hero if she had won the recently held Lok Sabha elections, but some people would not have liked it.

Speaking in Latur district of Maharashtra, the BJP’s national secretary said her supporters were worried about her uncertain future. Munde lost the Beed Lok Sabha seat to Bajrang Sonawane from NCP (SP) by a slim margin of 6,553 votes in the recently held general elections. “I bagged 6.7 lakh votes. If I had won, I would have been hailed a hero. But some people woudn’t like it,” she said.
