Boasting of a huge influence among the city’s Dalit voters, BJP ally and union minister of state Ramdas Athawale has sought at least 60 of 227 seats from the party in a pre-poll pact for the BMC polls. He said his party had the strength to give the BSP a fitting reply in Uttar Pradesh which will go to polls next month.
