Sanjay Raut Comments on Maharashtra's Third Deputy CM

Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray faction) leader and Rajya Sabha MP, Sanjay Raut, has made significant remarks about the political situation in Maharashtra.

He stated that the state will soon have a third Deputy Chief Minister, suggesting that Eknath Shinde, the current Deputy CM, holds little importance in the government. Raut indicated that a new candidate from Shinde's faction of Shiv Sena would take on the role.

Speaking about the division within the Shiv Sena party, Raut also criticized Eknath Shinde, accusing him of fleeing due to fears of investigations by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). 

He emphasized that Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray faction) remains strong and united, despite the ongoing political turmoil in the state.
