High voltage political drama intensified in Maharashtra as rebel Shiv Sena leader and state cabinet minister Eknath Shinde on Wednesday claimed that he has the support of 46 MLAs, including six to seven Independent MLAs.
As the future of the Maha Vikas Aghadi government appears to be uncertain, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray chaired a cabinet meeting on Wednesday.
Amid the soaring political temperatures in Maharashtra, Shiv Sena issued a letter to party MLAs warning them to be present at a meeting to be held in the evening or else considered themselves to be out from the party.
