Thane: Congress leader Narayan Rane today said Shiv Sena will suffer defeat in the forthcoming elections to Thane Municipal Corporation.
"Sena used to win elections here because I was with the party. Now you see how badly they will fare in polls," Mr Rane said addressing a gathering of party workers in Thane.
The former chief minister is the election incharge of the district.
To a query, he said Congress will soon get a young face as its president in Rahul Gandhi.
On the occasion, Mr Rane asked the partymen to not indulge in groupism and fight the elections, slated next year, unitedly.
Asked if he would contest Legislative Council elections, likely to be held in June for 11 seats, as proposed by state unit Congress president Ashok Chavan, Mr Rane said, "I am not afraid of contests".
