Thackeray Sena and Congress sparring over Mumbai South seat spark rumours of Milind Deora joining Shinde camp

The Hindu  

The ongoing rift between the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena and their ally, the Congress, over the Mumbai South Lok Sabha constituency has sparked intense speculation over Mumbai Congress leader Milind Deora, the ex-MP of Mumbai South, defecting to the ruling Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena even as Mr. Deora rebuffed such ‘rumours’ on Saturday. This drew sharp criticism from Congress leaders like Mr. Deora and Sanjay Nirupam who said the Sena ’s demands were excessive given that their vote-base had fragmented following the split in their ranks. Meanwhile, Eknath Shinde-led Sena faction Minister Uday Samant stepped into the fray, remarking that the Shinde-led Sena would welcome a leader of Milind Deora’s capabilities if he wished to enter the ruling party. However, Maharashtra Leader of Opposition and Congressman Vijay Wadettiwar dubbed rumours of Mr. Deora’s potential defection as “baseless” and a ploy to defame the MVA and spark divisions within it.
