Sambhajinagar: Ashok Chavan on Friday took a swipe at his ex-colleagues in Congress and said the party should introspect about its poor performance in the assembly polls.
“I was in ‘vanvaas’ for 14 long years (an apparent reference to his removal as CM) and I too have feelings,” he said.
Chavan, a former CM, had quit Congress and joined BJP earlier this year, while his daughter Shreejaya Chavan won the assembly poll from Bhokar in Nanded. “When I headed the state, the party won 82 seats (in 2009). After me, Prithviraj Chavan (CM from 2010 to 2014) brought it down to 44 and Nana Patole (state chief since Feb 2021) has now brought it down to 16,” he said. “Winning is a process in politics so Congress should introspect,” he said.
Chavan said he was not giving advice to his former party. PTI
