Mumbai: A Sessions which supports the Shinde faction, made a big statement. Kadu stated that 10 to 15 MLAs of Mahavikas Aghadi will split in the next 15 days.

Court in Mumbai declared that a breathalyser test, which is conducted by traffic police to determine if a driver has consumed alcohol, cannot be done by force. This was in regards to a man who was riding pillion on a bike and was charged with assaulting a traffic police officer after he refused to take the test. The man was acquitted. The court ruled that since the motorcyclist was not intoxicated, the authorities had no cause to require the passenger to take the alcohol test.

“It is admitted by PW-1 (traffic constable) in his evidence that Breath Analyzer Test is to be conducted on the driver of the vehicle and if test is found to be positive then action is taken against the driver. There is nothing on record to indicate as to what prompted PW-1 to raise suspicion about the accused being in drunken condition.” the court said in its order.

The court further added that there was no material with them to indicate that the accused was found under the influence of liquor. Breath Analyzer Test cannot be conducted by force. Since driver was not found under the influence of liquor, there was no reason for PW-1 to ask accused to subject himself to the test.

It also said that the police had not produced any evidence on the alleged assault or given any details of the alleged abuses uttered by the accused, clearing him of the other charges.

While criticizing Kadu’s statement, Raut also targeted BJP leaders in the state on the occasion of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Mumbai. “The Prime Minister frequently visits Mumbai, goes to Karnataka. Where there are elections, the Prime Minister often goes. This means that the local BJP leaders are very weak,” added Raut.

As Shin- de’s statement is against NCP, it is predicted that the conflict between the two Congresses will come to the fore in Solapur.

Speaking over this, Kalate said that I am determined to contest the election. “I contested from Chinchwad assembly in 2019. No one thought of contesting independent elections then.
