I look at this positively as he will convey the sentiments of the people gathered here,» Madani said, gesturing to the large gathering of Jamiat functionaries and supporters.

The sitting MLA from the Mumbra-Kalwa assembly constituency, who has been renominated by his party, targeted the Ekanath Shinde government over the state's «financial instability» and accused the BJP and RSS of trying to disrupt peace in the country.
