Maharashtra minister Pankaja Munde on Sunday, 20 October, said the objectionable remarks made against her by her cousin and NCP rival Dhananjay Munde indicated "perverted politics".
Pankaja also said she felt disgusted by the remarks.
Sitting BJP MLA Pankaja, daughter of BJP veteran late Gopinath Munde, is locked in a fierce battle with Dhananjay for the Parli assembly segment in neighbouring Beed district in the state assembly elections, voting for which is scheduled to be held on 21 October.
Dhananjay, the Leader of Opposition in the state Legislative Council, kicked up a row by allegedly making obscene comments against Pankaja at a campaign rally, resulting in an FIR against him.
