NEW DELHI: Threats of violence and counter-threats are flying thick and fast as the political crisis in Maharashtra deepens with each passing day. With a history of political unrest, violence in the state cannot be ruled out in the coming days.
Rebel minister Eknath Shinde of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government has been camping in a five-star hotel in Guwahati for the past few days. His faction needs the support of 37 MLAs of the Shiv Sena (two-thirds of the total 55 party MLAs) to escape the anti-defection law under the Tenth Schedule of the Constitution.
