Mumbai: Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Thursday said that most of the Shiv Sena MLAs have been forced to go to Guwahati with rebel Eknath Shinde. He was talking to the press persons here.
Raut said that Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray is in no danger of losing either his post as CM or as Party chief.
MLAs should not communicate from Guwahati, they should come back to Mumbai and discuss all this with CM. We are ready to consider exiting out of MVA if this is the will of all MLAs, but for that, they have to come here & discuss it with the CM: Shiv Sena leader @rautsanjay61 pic.twitter.com/K2cuMJqgqf

"MLAs should not communicate from Guwahati, they should come back to Mumbai and discuss all this with CM. We are ready to consider exiting out of MVA if this is the will of all MLAs," he added.
Rebel Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde who is stay put in a Guwahati five-star hotel with other rebel MLAs, has engendered a huge wave of revolt against Mr Thackeray. Over the last 24 hours, the rank and file of the Sena MLAs who have joined him - either physically or in letter - have crossed 40.
As a result, Thackeray is now backed by about 15 MLAs.
Earlier, Raut said 20 of the rebel MLAs "are in touch with us. When they come to Mumbai, you will get to know, (it) will soon be revealed, in what circumstances, pressure these MLAs left us."
