Sena vs Sena | Aaditya Thackeray claims Eknath Shinde ‘cried’ before Uddhav prior to revolt, said current CM feared arrest if he didn’t join BJP

The Hindu  

In the latest bout of sabre-rattling between the rival Shiv Sena camps, Sena leader Aaditya Thackeray claimed that current CM Eknath Shinde had allegedly “cried” before his father – former CM Uddhav Thackeray - at their residence before Mr. Shinde’s revolt last year, and that Mr. Shinde had alleged pressure by the Bharatiya Janata Party to join them or face arrest by central agencies. Chief Minister Shinde on Thursday refuted the Worli MLA’s remarks, calling Mr. Thackeray “puerile.” Mr. Aaditya Thackeray had made these remarks during his visit to Hyderabad on Wednesday. Predictably, the Shinde camp launched a blistering attack on Aaditya Thackeray, with Shinde faction MLAs dubbing him ‘Maharashtra’s Pappu’ while stating that Mr. Shinde revolted solely to save the Sena from its alliance with the ideologically opposed Congress and NCP. This is bad for the State’s political tradition,” said Mr. Kesarkar, remarking that the embattled Thackeray faction was merely trying to secure votes by “false sympathy.” Shinde camp MLA Santosh Bangar said the only reason for Mr. Shinde’s revolt was that the MLAs and MPs had become fed-up with the alliance with the Congress and the NCP, which was ought to finish the Sena off.
