The Shiv Sena’s finally found out how it lost the Maharashtra election: perfume.
The Shiv Sena’s finally found out how it lost the Maharashtra election: perfume. It claims Congress workers went into polling booths in the interior and applied ittar (perfume) on its symbol on voting machines. “They told voters that they would smell their fingers to see if they had voted for the Congress. Voters, scared because Congress workers were waiting outside, voted for the party. Even Sena’s committed voters were scared and voted for the Congress,” says Shailesh Patil, head of the Sena’s call centre and newly-inducted member of Uddhav Thackeray’s coterie.
