00:00In a day charged with political intensity, Maharashtra and Jharkhand witnessed dramatic
00:23scenes as the nomination deadline approached its close.
00:27Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's nomination from Kopri Panchpakdi set the tone for what
00:32will become a day of significant political move.
00:36The political landscape vibrated with energy as Zeeshan Siddiqui, carrying his father's
00:40legacy, filed his papers amid strong NCP support.
00:44The atmosphere today was also equally electric in Jharkhand, where the controversy erupted
00:49over inflammatory comments about a female candidate adding an unexpected twist to the
00:55BJP's campaign.
00:56So, without wasting further time, let us start our day with the latest edition of Poll Rap.
01:04The political battleground of Maharashtra crackled with tensions as the two powerhouses
01:09filed their nomination.
01:11Chief Minister Eknath Shinde stepped into his stronghold of Kopri Panchpakdi while Deputy
01:15CM Ajit Pawar made his bid for Baramati.
01:18Each move carefully orchestrated to display their political might.
01:22The air grew heavier with family drama in Baramati, where uncle and nephew found themselves
01:27on opposing sides.
01:28Ajit Pawar's show of strength, backed by his supporters' rally, stood in stark contrast
01:33to his nephew Yugendra's quieter filing, supported by NCP patriarch Sharad Pawar and Supriya
01:40Sulekha.
01:41Not only this, even Zeeshan Siddiqui, the son of late NCP MLA Baba Siddiqui, also filed
01:46his nomination today.
01:53Coming to Jharkhand, the electoral discourse in Jharkhand plunged to a new low, as Congress
02:13MLA Irrfan Ansari made derogatory remarks against the BJP candidate Sita Soren, igniting
02:20a firestorm of outrage.
02:22His reference to her as rejected maal not only crossed ethical boundaries but also struck
02:27at the heart of the political dignity.
02:29BJP has went all gun-blazing regarding the comments.
02:33The human cost of such verbal assault became painfully visible as Sita Soren today broke
02:38down in front of camera.
02:40Even the BJP leader Shivraj Singh Chauhan expressed his fury against the JMM Congress
02:44alliance echoing the widespread condemnation of this deplorable incident.
02:49Now the BJP has decided to move swiftly to the election commission regarding the comment.
02:55But for how long women will get such treatment in politics, nobody has a concrete answer.
03:49BJP leader Shivraj Singh Chauhan has made derogatory remarks against Sita Soren.
03:59He has called her a rejected maal.
04:05Doesn't Irrfan Ansari feel ashamed?
04:09Irrfan Ansari, BJP leader.
