Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Monday urged voters in Maharashtra to defeat leaders who he alleged had accepted substantial bribes to change allegiance, referring to them as "50 khoke".
The term "50 khoke" (cash boxes) was used after Chief Minister Eknath Shinde defected from the undivided Shiv Sena to form a government with the BJP in 2022.
Speaking at a rally for candidates of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) in Vasai near Mumbai, Kharge, without taking names of MLAs who supported Shinde, claimed each person was offered Rs 50 crore to switch allegiance and urged voters to send a clear message in the November 20 elections.
