Amid the ongoing political crisis in Maharashtra with rebel leader Eknath Shinde claiming of having the support of 46 MLAs, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Friday expressed confidence that Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government would win the floor test in the State Assembly.
A day after the Uddhav Thackeray faction submitted a plea before Deputy Speaker Narhari Jhirwal to disqualify the rebel MLAs, the Ekanth Shinde faction on Friday gave a notice of no-confidence motion against the deputy speaker.
No, rebel Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde has not left for Mumbai to meet Deputy Speaker of Legislative Assembly Narhari Zirwal. He has returned to the Radisson Blu Hotel in Assam's Guwahati after around 2.5 hours. He had reportedly gone to the Kamakhya Temple to offer prayers, reported news agency ANI.
