BJP leader Chitra Wagh Slams Mayor Kishori Pednekar For Ignoring Mumbaiโ€™s Real Issue

Mumbai: Mumbai Mayor Kishori Pednekarโ€™s Gujarat visit to see penguins has come under severe criticism for ignoring larger issues in the city. BJP leader Chitra Wagh has reminded the mayor that Mumbai has many problems to deal with.

Questioning Pednekarโ€™s tour, Wagh said the mayor has expressed her love towards penguins rather than humans. โ€œKishoritai travelled 550 km to see penguins but she did not travel for eight minutes when an infant had died in a cylinder blast at Worli. She also admitted that their โ€œprinceโ€ is called a penguin and I am sure she would receive praise for that.โ€

Taunting the mayor for her praise for Gujarat, Wagh said it is Hindu culture. โ€œWelcoming a guest is our culture in the Hindu society. However, now you are close to Sultans and hence forgotten the Hindu culture,โ€ the BJP leader said.

Wagh alleged that Shiv Senaโ€™s intention is exposed now before the public. โ€œThe party works for penguins and highway construction but not for the Mumbaikars,โ€ she added.

Wagh was referring to Pednekarโ€™s recent visit to Gujarat to see penguins in Ahmedabadโ€™s Science City. Shiv Sena has been severely criticised by the opposition BJP for bringing in penguins in the Byculla zoo.
