Moving swiftly, the Thane police s Crime Branch nabbed two persons and detained one in connection with the double shooting in Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde s hometown, leaving two persons injured, including one critically, police said on Friday.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday agreed to hear on August 1 a fresh plea of the Uddhav Thackeray-led camp of Shiv Sena seeking a stay on the proceedings before the Election Commission of India on Eknath Shinde group s claim for recognition as real Shiv Sena.
A day after Eknath Shinde won the Vote of Confidence in the Maharashtra Assembly, Shiv Sena on Tuesday termed the victory as stolen majority and said that it was not the belief of the people of the state.
