Quick Read
Shiv Sena (UBT) is trying to corner other Shiv Sena factions over creation of Vidarbha state. Recently, a senior BJP leader had reiterated that the party would continue to stand by its promise of securing statehood, a stand that the undivided Shiv Sena had vehemently opposed.
Taking a cue from the BJP leader’s statement, Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray, said in Nagpur on Friday: “What is the stand of those [a reference to Eknath Shinde and his party] sitting next to the CM?” Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis hails from Nagpur and has always supported statehood.
