India News | Eknath Shinde Slams Aaditya

Thane, Jan 27 (PTI) Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Monday slammed Shiv Sena (UBT) MLA Aaditya Thackeray for his comments on workers and leaders quitting the party to join Shinde-led Shiv Sena.

Shinde said the Mahayuti alliance would win the forthcoming elections to local self bodies with a good majority in view of the "influx" of workers from other parties.

"Comments of Aaditya Thackeray on those leaving the party were unwarranted. They (Sena UBT) should introspect instead of indulging in such things. These people whom Aaditya Thackeray termed gutter will show Sena (UBT) its place," Shinde said and accused Aaditya of insulting women beneficiaries of the Ladki Bahin scheme.
