MUMBAI: The Congress has reiterated its objection to renaming Aurangabad even as its ally Shiv Sena said the name change would happen soon but the issue would not rock the coalition government in Maharashtra.
Maharashtra minister and state Congress chief Balasaheb Thorat had said two days ago that he would strongly oppose renaming the Aurangabad city in central Maharashtra as Sambhajinagar. Speaking to reporters on Saturday, Thorat said the party revers Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj as well as his son and successor Chhatrapati Sambhaji, but the issue of renaming should not be used for spreading hatred .
It was the Shiv Sena, which had first made the demand to rename Aurangabad as Sambhajinagar over two decades ago.
