Shiv Sena Member of Parliament, Hemant Godse, encountered a harrowing experience on Monday morning (February 19) when his car was involved in a significant accident in New Delhi. The incident resulted in extensive damage to his vehicle, but fortunately, no major injuries were reported.
Godse had visited New Delhi to attend an event commemorating the legendary figure, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. After paying homage to the statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in Parliament, Godse was returning home when the unfortunate accident occurred.
The accident transpired as Godse’s car was passing through BD Marg in Delhi. Traveling in an Innova, his vehicle was rear-ended by an Artica while attempting to overtake another vehicle, leading to the substantial damage incurred by his car. Thankfully, there were no serious injuries sustained by anyone involved in the accident.
Hemant Godse, who represents the Nashik constituency of Maharashtra, is a prominent member of the Shiv Sena. He has a notable political history, having previously been associated with the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena. In the 2009 elections, he contested the Nashik constituency but was defeated by the NCP’s Sameer Bhujbal. However, he bounced back in subsequent elections, securing impressive victories against formidable opponents.
In 2014, Godse defeated the NCP stalwart Chhagan Bhujbal, a former deputy chief minister of Maharashtra, by a significant margin of 1,87,336 votes. His electoral success continued in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, where he secured his second consecutive term by defeating Samir Bhujbal, son of Chhagan Bhujbal, by an impressive margin of 3 lakh votes. This victory marked a significant milestone, making him the second MP in 56 years to achieve a repeated term in office.
While the accident may have caused damage to his vehicle, Hemant Godse’s commitment to serving his constituents remains unwavering, reflecting his resilience and dedication to public service.
