Shiv Sena strikes back at BJP in new round of poaching

Political defections are escalating in Ambernath as the Shiv Sena retaliated against the BJP’s recruitment of a key Sena leader by inducting the BJP’s minority women’s wing president and hundreds of its office-bearers. This tit-for-tat move follows a no-poaching pact between the state allies, highlighting growing friction ahead of local elections. The Sena vows further responses to BJP’s actions.
