“I have no grudge against anybody but since Narendra Mehta has played a crucial role in the development of the twin city, we wanted to support the BJP in its future endeavours,” said Virkar after his official entry into the BJP.
Despite a vertical split in the party due to the rebellion of senior Shiv Sena leader- Eknath Shinde in 2022, Virkar had chosen to remain loyal with the UBT faction. However, he switched sides and jumped into the BJP bandwagon in the presence of former legislator- Narendra Mehta ahead of the assembly elections which are expected to be held in November, this year.
