Opposition boycotts Maharashtra CM’s tea party

Deccan Chronicle  

Mumbai: The Opposition ‘Maha Vikas Aghadi’ on Sunday decided to boycott the chief minister’s customary tea party on the eve of the Assembly session. The opposition leaders said they had received the invitation for the customary tea party, but decided not to attend it because the government led by CM Devendra Fadnavis is anti-farmers, anti-Dalit and it has failed to maintain law and order in the state. Shiv Sena leader Aaditya Thackeray urged CM Devendra Fadnavis to drop deputy chief minister Eknath Shinde from his cabinet due to his involvement in the alleged Rs 12,000 crore road scam. Aaditya Thackeray asked Mr. Fadnavis to exclude former CM Eknath Shinde and two other former ministers, Mangalprabhat Lodha and Deepak Kesarkar, from the cabinet and urged the CM to start a formal inquiry into the alleged road scam.
