'Nothing works in front of people’s power': Maharashtra CM Shinde dismisses Uddhav's threat

India TV News  

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde dismissed Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray’s outburst over the demolition of his party’s ‘shakha’ in the Thane district and said that 'nothing works in front of people’s power.' "Thackeray had to turn back when he attempted to visit the spot of the ‘shakha’ in Mumbra on Saturday," Shinde said speaking to reporters after attending a Diwali programme. Thackeray, along with top leaders of the Sena, went to Mumbra to visit the razed shakha but had to face resistance from workers of the chief minister’s Shiv Sena, who raised slogans and showed him black flags. Many senior leaders from Shiv Sena UBT had accompanied Thackeray, but Shiv Sena leader Naresh Mhaske was tough enough to take them on, Shinde said.
