The MLA claims he received a complaint over the poor quality of food, following which he paid a visit to inspect it himself.
The Sena MLA from Hingoli notably joined the Shinde camp minutes before the floor test of Maharashtra Assembly in July. The Sena leadership then removed Santosh Bangar from the post of Hingoli district president.
During the early days of the rebellion led by Eknath Shinde, Santosh Bangar was caught on camera, asking the rebel MLAs to return.
In another video, Bangar was seen crying and saying that the environment in Maharashtra had turned bad and that all the MLAs in Eknath Shinde's camp must come back to Shiv Sena's fold as party chief Uddhav Thackeray would forgive them.
