Two persons involved in making an objectionable video of Shiv Sena MLA Prakash Surve (Shinde faction) and a woman leader have been arrested, said Mumbai police.
Mumbai Police has registered a case against a man for allegedly making derogatory remarks about the Bharatiya Janata Party and Shiv Sena leaders on social media, police said.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's faction on Tuesday claimed their right to the Shiv Sena party and said that a legislature party is integral and organically connected to the political party.
NCP leader and former Maharashtra Chief Minister Sharad Pawar attacked the Centre over Election Commission decision, saying it is an example of "how an institution can be misused".
Days after the Election Commission granted the "Shiv Sena" name and the "bow and arrow" party symbol to Chief Minister Eknath Shinde faction, former Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray alleged that everything has been stolen from him but the name 'Thackeray' cannot be stolen.
