Shiv Sena leader Shaina NC expressed concerns over the absence of a leader of opposition (LoP) in Maharashtra’s legislative assembly for the first time in the state’s history. In an exclusive interview with ANI on Monday, Shaina NC pointed out that this development was a direct consequence of the actions of the Congress and other opposition parties, which she accused of spreading false narratives and misleading the public.

“This is the first time in Maharashtra's history that we will not have a leader in the opposition. This situation reflects the wrong deeds of Congress and the opposition. They spread false narratives and used degrading adjectives to attack us—’maal,’ ‘bakri,’ ‘kutta’—and put forth a vision plan that was utterly dysfunctional,” Shaina NC said.
