However, forward of the meeting, Sattar with the assistance of his supporters got rid of about 300 chairs from the party place of work.
The meeting was once later held on the NCP place of work right here.
Sattar, thought to be a outstanding leader of the Congress in this district, was once hoping to get party price ticket for the Aurangabad Lok Sabha seat.
However, the Congress made up our minds to box MLC Subash Zhambad from the seat and this it appears irked Sattar.
On Tuesday, he learnt about the meeting on the Gandhi Bhawan. Before the meeting, his workers took away the entire chairs with them, claiming they had been supplied by Sattar.
Speaking to PTI, Sattar stated, "Yes the chairs were mine and we were providing them for Congress meetings. Now I have left the party so took my chairs back. Those who got the candidature should make arrangements for the campaign."
