Rane was furious after Maharashtra state Congress chief and former chief minister Ashok Chavan had dissolved the Sindhudurg district Congress committee.

The committee had office bearers who were close to Rane. Later, Chavan had appointed a new committee which irked the leader.   

Rane was also part of Shiv Sena but his ambitions had coerced him to leave the party and he had joined Congress.
