Political upheaval of Maharashtra (Maharashtra political crisisNow the news is coming that in the Shiv Sena of 55 MLAs, 41 MLAs have joined the Shinde faction. Today 8 MLAs reached Guwahati to join Shinde faction. The script of what happened today (June 23, Thursday) was ready at the time of writing the story of a recently released film. The film itself is Eknath Shinde (Eknath Shinde) was promoted. He had distributed many tickets to Shiv Sainiks. CM Uddhav Thackeray himself had reached to launch this film. Bollywood star Salman Khan had arrived as the chief guest at the launch of this film. Apart from them, Bollywood stars like Ritesh Deshmukh and Amisha Patel had arrived. Named ‘Dharmaveer-Thane Mukkam Post’, this Marathi language film was based on the life of Eknath Shinde’s political guru Anand Dighe.
Anand Dighe was the leader who spread the roots of Shiv Sena in Thane and its adjoining areas of Mumbai. The popularity of Balasaheb Thackeray in Mumbai was the same as that of Anand Dighe in Thane and rural areas. Dighe, rebellious by nature, used to violate the orders of Balasaheb Thackeray many times. According to many old Shiv Sainiks, the kind of ‘sometimes cold, sometimes hot’ relationship between Balasaheb Thackeray and Anand Dighe, the same relationship has been between Anand Dighe’s disciple Eknath Shinde and Uddhav Thackeray.
Had Shinde not been separated, would Dighe have died? After all, why did Uddhav Thackeray leave the film halfway?
After the rebellion of Eknath Shinde, the old Shiv Sainik and now the BJP’s strong leader, Union Minister Narayan Rane made an important tweet and also said a big thing in his press conference. He said that if Eknath Shinde had not rebelled, he too would have had the same condition as Anand Dighe. Rane reminds that when Anand Dighe was murdered, the doors of ‘Matoshree’ were closed for him before. He was not allowed to meet the Shiv Sena chief. Let us tell you that Uddhav Thackeray had come out leaving Dharamveer halfway through the film. He had said that he did not want to see the climax of this film.
Dighe remained only showing his attitude, disciple Shinde’s method is different.
The role of Eknath Shinde in Anand Dighe’s film has also been shown quite prominently. Eknath Shinde, a rickshaw puller, was brought to the heights of heights by Anand Dighe by bringing him into politics. After Anand Dighe, it did not take long for Eknath Shinde to prove his rightful successor in Thane and rural areas. Eknath Shinde is similar to his guru Anand Dighe in many respects and different in many respects. Anand Dighe was a sharp leader, a leader in the organization, his speech was very energetic. Talking about Eknath Shinde, he is not very vocal like Sanjay Raut of today. They don’t speak much. But the hold of Eknath Shinde in the organization is amazing, it has also been proved now.
One of the biggest differences is that Anand Dighe used to work against Balasaheb Thackeray, but he never tried to make a difference by leaving him. If he wanted, he could have done like Eknath Shinde. At one point of time, his popularity was almost equal to that of Balasaheb Thackeray. But after the rapid rise of Aaditya Thackeray and Sanjay Raut, Eknath Shinde was not ready to see himself as a mute spectator to the sidelines and finally blew the bugle of rebellion.
This is how compulsions came to the fore, know why the distance came from the Thackeray family
Eknath Shinde’s rebellion did not happen suddenly. When BJP and Shiv Sena were in government, then CM Devendra Fadnavis gave him full freedom as Public Works Minister. Meanwhile, he constantly became close to Devendra Fadnavis. It is said that in the last six months, Devendra Fadnavis was ready to make him the Deputy Chief Minister. Even when Shiv Sena was forming the government by joining the Maha Vikas Aghadi, the name of Eknath Shinde had cropped up for the chief minister’s post. Then Sharad Pawar was trying to put Uddhav Thackeray on the post of Chief Minister.
Even at this time, two factions were clearly visible in Shiv Sena. One faction was led by Eknath Shinde who believed that leaving the BJP would prove to be a big mistake. While the other faction was with Sanjay Raut who wanted to go with Sharad Pawar. After this Uddhav Thackeray became the Chief Minister. The matter did not stop here. Due to being close to Sharad Pawar, Sanjay Raut’s stature started increasing. Meanwhile, Aaditya Thackeray was entered as Tourism Minister, Environment Minister, Mumbai’s Guardian Minister and Raj Etiquette Minister. Eknath Shinde was marginalized.
Shinde remained Reachable even at midnight instead of Not Reachable Thackeray
In the COVID era, Eknath Shinde quietly strengthened his hold in the organization of the party. Many Shiv Sena MLAs complained that NCP Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar was reluctant to give funds in their areas. Most of the funds are going to the account of leaders of NCP and Congress. But far from looking into the grievances of the Shiv Sena MLAs, meeting the MLAs from Uddhav Thackeray was becoming not only difficult but impossible. In such a situation, the MLAs of Shiv Sena started to understand that Shiv Sena’s existence as a party is going to end in order to save the chief minister’s chair.
During this COVID period, Eknath Shinde used to easily meet the MLAs of the state. He used to attend his calls even in the middle of the night. Not only in Thane and its surrounding areas, but also in the rural areas across the state, the MLAs continued to strengthen their hold. This is the reason why 41 MLAs of Shiv Sena have joined Eknath Shinde’s camp today and only 14 MLAs are left with Uddhav Thackeray.
