"What's left of MVA?": Shiv Sena's Shaina NC jibes at Uddhav Thackeray

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 28 (ANI): Shiv Sena leader Shaina NC took a jibe at former Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and said that the public has given a "befitting answer" to those who lost their ideology for power.
Speaking to ANI on Thursday, she said that Mahayuti was here to stay and to work in the interest of the people of the state.
The Shiv Sena leader further questioned the existence of Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) after the Mahayuti alliance consisting of her party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and Ajit Pawar's Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) swept the 2024 Maharashtra assembly elections. She said it doesn't make a difference if Uddhav Thackeray leaves MVA.
"What is left of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) is the question. Whether you leave or don't leave, it doesn't make a difference. Do understand this Tsunami and the mandate that has come to the Mahayuti is based on good governance. Not just pushing false narratives and blabbering on television, which seems to be the narrative of Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray). Mahayuti is here to stay and to work in the interest of the people of Maharashtra. For all those who lost their ideology and threw it away for power, the public has given a befitting answer to them," Shiv Sena leader Shaina NC told ANI.
The Shiv Sena leader expressed the desire of the party workers for Eknath Shinde to return as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra and said that he should have been "the natural choice."
"Eknath Shinde has been an excellent captain of the team. The way he led us to victory shows you that people on the ground--masses, voters--all accepted various schemes, including the Ladki Behna Yojana or the incredible work done in two and a half years. Now the reality is that the strike rate of all three parties has been so stupendous that every party will want its leader to become the Chief Minister. But we feel that the way Eknath Shinde has worked on the ground without any allegation and for the common man and led us to victory, he should have been the natural choice. Having said that, he has also shown dignity by saying that it is the high command that will decide who should be given the leadership and that shows you the calibre of the leader and in days to come, we will continue to work under his guidance," Shiv Sena leader Shaina NC said.
Earlier, NCP chief Ajit Pawar said on Wednesday that discussions over government formation will take place in the national capital and a final decision will be taken tomorrow.
Ajit Pawar said he, BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis, and caretaker Chief Minister Eknath Shinde will reach Delhi tomorrow, and further discussions will be held.
He said discussions will be held for the post of Chief Minister and two Deputy Chief Ministers.
"All three of us (Devendra Fadnavis, Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar) are coming to Delhi tomorrow. Further discussions will be held there. Discussions on the formation of the government with a CM and two deputy CMs will be held," Pawar, the former Deputy Chief Minister, told reporters. (ANI)
