Nominated directors in Gokul and ordinance are a direct disregard for the public and farmer mandate: Satej Pail

Kolhapur, Nov 10 (UNI) Congress MLC Satej Patil said that the election process in Gokul and the intervention via government-nominated directors were a direct disregard for the public and farmer mandate, where the Rajarshi Shahu Shetkari Samwichari Aghadi originally secured 13 compared to the Mahayuti's 12.
While addressing a press conference this evening after the defeat of Samwichari Aghadi's candidate Shashikant Patil-Chyukar in Gokul's chairmanship election where Mahayuti candidate Rajesh Patil was elected as chairman by 16-13 votes, Satej Patil accused senior leaders Chandrakant Patil and Hasan Mushrif of pressuring Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis over the Gokul election and involving the CM unnecessarlly in the local cooperative dispute.
Patil hit back at BJP leader and Minister Chandrakant Patil, stating, "Don't threaten me, I am also a Patil," and accused him of falling in ideological standards and making threats about bringing in an administrator if the results didn't go their way. He warned that the political threats and actions from the ruling alliance would have serious political repercussions in the future.
