Lakshmi Hebbalkar unveiled the statue of Shivaji again
Congress MLA Lakshmi Hebbalkar once again unveiled the statue of Shivaji in Rajahansagad fort.
Speaking after inaugurating the statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in the Rajahansagada Fort premises of Belgaum Rural Constituency, Lakshmi Hebbalkar said, I took oath as your daughter in 2018. Lakshmi Hebbalkar is nothing short of courage. I am so emotional today. They are giving too much trouble. So I am emotional.
The BJP government filed two cases against me, I did not say anything. Satyameva Jayate worked very humbly. A lot of people come and travel. As per the etiquette, the inauguration is done. I have great respect for CM, there is nothing wrong with him. By putting political pressure on him, Shivaji's statue was dedicated to the public.
The statue of Shivaji was not yet completed. Sanjay Patil, Gokak MLA did not come for a day after visiting here. He was busy with PM Modi programme. Besides that, there was a broom and a paint bucket right next to the statue of our Maharaja. In just 12 minutes, Apoorna Murthy was inaugurated and insulted. He shouted that he had insulted Shiva devotees and played politics.
Someone will come and speak politely. I have respect for CM Basavaraja Bommai. He diverted them, brought them and inaugurated them. The half-painted statue was inaugurated in 12 minutes. Ramesh lashed out against Jarakiholi without naming him as a great insult to Shivaji Maharaj.
He made a mistake, he played politics in the matter of installation. I swear by Siddeshwar. I have not done politics in this matter. When DK Shivakumar was the minister, I released the grant in three months. Then delayed by covid, floods. Now the election has come. I don't need to use the statue inauguration election. He said, "Give me a chance to do good work. This is our destiny." He said that he is proud that this work was done not by me but by all of us together.
