Mumbai, August 18: Saffron allies BJP and Shiv Sena may not be on as cordial terms in Maharashtra like in the yore but this hasn’t come in the way of top leaders of the parties “exchanging” their publicist.
Sena today announced that Harshal Pradhan, Gadkari’s PR man, will now look after party executive president Uddhav Thackeray’s publicity.
Although reasons for Pradhan’s switch were not known, Sena in a release said Harshal would look after its “media coordination and public relations”.
When contacted, Harshal said he was handling Gadkari’s publicity since 2004. He has also handled the party’s media centre during elections.
