Shiv Sena MLAs are speculated to be headed to Goa from Guwahati where they had camped for the past few days against Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray. They are likely to stay at Taj Convention Goa where 71 rooms have reportedly been booked.
Rebel Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde on Wednesday said that he will be reaching Mumbai on Thursday to “take the required legislative process forward”. Shinde stepped out of the Radisson Blu hotel in Guwahati on Wednesday morning and visited the Kamakhya Temple – along with two more MLAs from the western state.
Shinde and his two other colleagues were accompanied by Assam BJP MLA Sushanta Borgohain. “I did a darshan of Ma Kamakhya Devi today to seek peace, and prosperity of Maharashtra and its people. Tomorrow we will reach Mumbai to take the required legislative process forward,” Shinde told the media. The rebel leader also said that he will take part in the floor test in the Maharashtra Assembly. “I will take part in the floor test and follow all protocols,” he said. Maharashtra governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari on Wednesday sent a letter to chief minister Uddhav Thackeray, asking him to face a floor test and prove the majority by convening a special session of the state legislature at 11 am on June 30. As per the letter, the floor test must conclude by 5 pm.
