Amravati, Jan 7: Congress minister Yashomati Thakur has stirred up controversy yet again. A video clip of Thakur addressing a rally can be heard saying that it has only been a while since the Congress coalition has formed in Maharashtra and that the party is 'yet to fill their pockets.'
The minister for Women and Child Development in the Uddhav Thackeray-led government of the Maha Vikas Aghadi in Maharashtra was seen saying, “Our government was not in power till now. We have just managed to form a government. I have just taken oath as a minister. We are yet to fill our pockets”. ‘Filling pocket’ is a euphemism for bribes.
Thakur was addressing a public meeting campaigning for the local body polls in Amravati, Maharashtra on Saturday.
Earlier Thakur was also in the news some months back for misbehaving with cops and medical staff at a Mumbai hospital.
