BJP takes into its fold man it said had ties with ’93 blast convict

Despite past accusations of ties to a 1993 bomb blasts convict, former Shiv Sena (UBT) Nashik unit chief Sudhakar Badgujar joined BJP, prompting internal dissent within the party’s Nashik unit. The induction occurred after Badgujar’s expulsion from Shiv Sena (UBT) and a meeting with Devendra Fadnavis, with senior BJP leaders welcoming him despite initial claims of unawareness. Despite past accusations of ties to a 1993 bomb blasts convict, former Shiv Sena (UBT) Nashik unit chief Sudhakar Badgujar joined BJP, prompting internal dissent within the party’s Nashik unit.
