After his statement, the Aam Aadmi Party has demanded Koshyari's resignation. In fact, Bhagat Singh Koshyari said, "When we used to study in middle school, high school, our teachers used to ask who is your favorite hero, some used to name Subhash Chandra Bose, some Gandhiji, and some Nehru." He used to name the one whom he liked. I feel that today if someone asks you who is your favorite leader, then you do not need to go outside, you will be found right here in Maharashtra. Shivaji is a thing of the old era, in the new era, From Dr. Ambedkar to Nitin Gadkari will be found here.

If he doesn't understand why we Maharashtrians consider Shivaji Maharaj as our hero, he needs to go. We don't even need his advice on Babasaheb, to put him in the same category as Gadkari is appalling!'
