Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut has said that party chief Uddhav Thackeray will not resign as the chief minister of Maharashtra.
Eknath Shinde tweeted, ‘In the last two and a half years, the MVA government benefited only the constituent parties (Congress, NCP), and the Shiv Sainiks were overwhelmed. He added, “It is essential to get out of the unnatural alliance for the survival of the party and Shiv Sainiks. Decisions need to be taken now in the interest of Maharashtra.’
