Shiv Sena workers burn effigies of Eknath Shinde outside party office

: Amid the political turmoil in Maharashtra, CM Uddhav Thackeray claimed that the BJP is behind the rebellion in the Shiv Sena. He said that BJP’s only objective now is to ‘finish Shiv Sena’. On Friday, (June 24), Thackeray had held a virtual meeting with district chiefs on the issue and called for the party’s national executive committee today at 1 pm, ANI reported.

Meanwhile, Shiv Sena sought the disqualification of 12 rebel MLAs including Shinde for “not attending” the legislative party meeting held on Wednesday. Reacting to the development, Shinde tweeted, “You cannot scare us by giving the names of 12 MLAs for disqualification because we are followers of the Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray. We know the law, so we do not pay heed to threats.”
