Maharashtra’s political crisis has now turned into a simple battle – ideology versus the courts. As rebel Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde’s faction camps in Guwahati to strategize against the Uddhav Thackeray government, leaders are confident that they have worked together in sufficient numbers to win the legal battle against the Maharashtra chief minister and his supporters. has done.
However, the Shinde camp is not ready to rest on their alleged victory in the numbers game and sources told CNN-News18 that they plan to issue an open letter claiming that they are the army’s patron Balasaheb. Thackeray and his ideology. Shinde is also expected to conduct a Facebook Live session on Monday to engage with the masses.
A closer analysis of the sequence of events makes it clear that Shinde is pushing on two fronts: One, he is assuring the rebel MLAs that everything will be all right eventually. A Shinde camp leader said: “Shinde-ji has given us confidence and told us not to worry. The families of the laborers will be taken care of. He also emphasized that we have to uphold Balasaheb’s ideology at any cost.
Second, the rebel leader – who reportedly fueled the rebellion after being sidelined by the Uddhav Thackeray camp – has made it clear that ideology, not the greed for power, is the mainstay of their rebellion. From paying tribute to Chhatrapati Shivaji to celebrating the rebel MLA’s birthday, Shinde is doing everything possible to keep his flock together.
The rebel faction wants to project that the chief minister’s decision to ally with NCP chief Sharad Pawar – who has “undermined” Balasaheb Thackeray’s ideology – was wrong and has come back to bite Uddhav Thackeray.
In the latest, Eknath Shinde on Sunday moved the Supreme Court against the disqualification notices to him and 15 other MLAs. The top court is likely to hear the petition on Monday.
The Shinde “faction”, which is currently camping at a hotel in Guwahati since June 22, has demanded that the Shiv Sena pull out of the Maha Vikas Aghadi alliance, which also includes the NCP and Congress. But Shiv Sena too refused to give up and took a tough stand against the dissidents by asking them to contest again.
