Big upheaval again in Maharashtra politics, 8 MPs of Uddhav group secretly met Eknath Shinde – ..
News India Live, Digital Desk: Once again a phase of maneuvering has started in the politics of Maharashtra. The biggest news currently floating in the market of speculations is that about 8 MPs of Uddhav Thackeray faction (Shiv Sena UBT) are in contact with Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. There is talk that these MPs have recently met the Chief Minister, after which the political temperature of the state has reached its peak. If there is even a little truth in these discussions, then Mahavikas Aghadi may face another big blow in the coming days.
Is there going to be a big rebellion again?
The news is coming quoting sources that some MPs of Uddhav camp are feeling insecure about their political future. It is being discussed that these MPs had come to meet the Chief Minister regarding development works and problems of their areas, but in political circles this is being seen as a ‘homecoming’ or preparation for changing sides. Although this meeting has not yet been officially confirmed by any MP or Shinde group, the murmurs going on inside are giving some big indications.
Shinde group’s claims increased uneasiness
Leaders of Shinde faction often claim that along with Uddhav Thackeray, the remaining MLAs and MPs are also not happy with his way of working. Political analysts believe that such news coming before the elections could be part of a well-thought-out strategy. If these 8 MPs change sides, not only will Uddhav Thackeray’s power reduce, but the NDA alliance will have an upper hand in the upcoming elections.
Uddhav group’s clarification and opposition’s attack
On the other hand, Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT) has termed these reports as mere rumours. Senior party leaders say that this is only a conspiracy to spread confusion so that the morale of the workers can be broken. But the history of Maharashtra politics is witness to the fact that here ‘smoke arises only where there is fire’. Now it remains to be seen what new turn the coming few days bring in the battle for power and organization in Maharashtra.
