Sena MLA dares NCP MLA to fight polls against him from Kalyan

Shiv Sena MLA from Thane Pratap Sarnaik, who used to be close to NCP Maharashtra executive president and Mumbra MLA Jitendra Bunty Awhad, took exception the latter for daring Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray to contest against him in Kalyan if he had the guts to do so.
It may be recalled that Awhad had taken a dig at Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray who had urged NCP Chief Sharad Pawar in a lighter vein last week, to contest the elections from Shirur, despite the fact Pawar had already announced his desire not to contest any more elections.
Asked about his opinion about Awhad statement, Sarnaik who used to be his close aide said, "When two party leaders (referring to Pawar and Uddhav) discuss something, irrelevant people should not interefere. If Awhad has any guts, then ask him to contest against me. I am ready to take him on in the Kalyan constituency".
