The Shiv Sena-led party is witnessing a political crisis following indifferences by a group of MLAs headed by Maharashtra Cabinet Minister Eknath Shinde. The revolt has initiated speculations that the MLAs might join the BJP in a bid to fight against the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government.

Earlier today, Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari after testing positive for Covid was admitted to a private hospital in south Mumbai.
