Maharashtra Political Crisis: Shiv Sena To Hold National Executive Meet Today

New Delhi: Amid ongoing political crisis in Maharashtra, Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray has called a meeting of the party’s national executive committee at 1 pm today, reported news agency ANI. The meeting will be held in Shiv Sena Bhavan and will be virtually joined by the Chief Minister. The meeting comes a day after Thackeray had addressed the district chiefs of Shiv Sena wherein he said that the rebel MLAs who are camping in Guwahati want to “break the party”.

“I have said earlier also that I don’t have anything to do with power. The people who used to say that they would rather die than leave Shiv Sena have fled today,” Thackeray said during his virtual address at the meeting.

“The rebel MLAs want to break the party. I had never thought in dreams that I would become the chief minister. I have left Varsha Bungalow but not the will to fight,” he added.

In the meeting, the Shiv Sena chief also targeted Eknath Shinde saying that he did everything for the rebel party leader and yet a lot of allegations were levelled against the former. 

“I did everything for Eknath Shinde. I gave him the department which I held. His own son is an MP and comments are being made regarding my son. A lot of allegations are levelled against me,” he said. “If they have courage, they should go among people without taking Balasaheb & Shiv Sena’s names,” he added.

The Maharashtra Chief Minister who underwent a cervical spine injury last year said, “I had pain in my neck and head, I was not able to work properly, I could not open my eyes but I did not care about it. Shivaji Maharaj was defeated but people were always with him.”

Meanwhile legislators continued to migrate to Shinde camp with rebel leader Eknath Shinde claiming support of 38 party MLAs.
