Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde criticized his former party colleague Uddhav Thackeray, stating that although he occupies the state’s highest office, he still fulfills the responsibilities of a party worker because in his faction of the Shiv Sena, there is no hierarchy of boss and servant.
“I am a CM, but I work as a worker even now. There is no boss or any servant in our party. We are all working in cooperation with each other,” Shinde stated during a public meeting in Nagpur on Sunday.
Criticizing Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray for promoting dynastic politics by supporting his son Aditya Thackeray, Shinde remarked, “(In our party) the king’s son will not become the king. Only the one who works will become the king. Balasaheb Thackeray considered his colleagues as friends, but he (Uddhav) considered us as domestic servants.” Shinde further stated, “A party or the state can never be run sitting at home”.
Earlier, the Maharashtra CM criticized Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), saying that the opposition is “Teen Tigada Kaam Bigada,” and asserted that the Mahayuti alliance comprising the BJP, Shiv Sena, and NCP is going to win all seats in Vidarbha.”
“Mahayuti (the BJP, Shiv Sena, NCP alliance) is getting a good response in Vidarbha. There is such an atmosphere that the Mahayuti will win all the Lok Sabha seats in Vidarbha. In two to three days, the Mahayuti will decide on the remaining seats. The Maha Vikas Aghadi is ‘Teen Tigada Kaam Bigada’. They have no agenda,” CM Shinde stated.
The Lok Sabha elections in Maharashtra are scheduled to take place in five phases: April 19, April 26, May 7, May 13, and May 20. The vote counting is set for June 4. With its 48 Lok Sabha seats, the state stands as the second-largest contributor to the lower house of Parliament, following Uttar Pradesh. Maharashtra, recognized for its political diversity and substantial electoral sway, is pivotal in shaping the national political landscape.
In the 2019 elections, the BJP became the largest party with 23 seats, while the undivided Shiv Sena secured 18 seats.
