Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamana in an editorial on Saturday said the city of Aurangabad will soon be renamed to Sambhajinagar, and this changed name will be reflected on government papers.
This comes a day after Maharashtra Congress president and state revenue minister Balasaheb Thorat said the Congress, which is an ally of the Shiv Sena, will oppose any move to rename Aurangabad.
Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut expressed confidence that the issue would be resolved when all the MVA allies- Sena, NCP and Congress- sit together and talk.
MUMBAI: Two days after Maharashtra Congress chief Balasaheb Thorat said his party would strongly oppose any proposal that seeks to rename Aurangabad as Sambhajinagar, the Shiv Sena on Saturday said its resistance will not affect the three-party MVA government in the state. Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut expressed confidence that the issue would be resolved when all the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) allies- Sena, NCP and Congress- sit together and talk.
On Thursday, Thorat had asserted that the Congress would oppose any proposal to rename Aurangabad, saying that changing the names of places was not part of the Common Minimum Programme (CMP) of the three ruling parties. It was the Shiv Sena, which had first made the demand to rename Aurangabad as Sambhajinagar over two decades ago.
