BJP-Sena didn't spare even a single seat for RPI: Athawale

Union minister and Republican Party of India (RPI) leader Ramdas Athawale Thursday expressed his displeasure over the BJP and Shiv Sena not sparing any seat for his party in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Athawale's party is part of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government at the Centre.

Talking to reporters on the sidelines of a function here, he said, "I took efforts for the BJP-Sena patch-up and worked for the alliance. But they left us in the lurch by not giving any seat to the RPI."
