TIL Desk/National/Mumbai/ In the wake of Shiv Sena minister Eknath Shinde’s rebellion, MP Sanjay Raut on Friday admitted that the party’s numbers in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly have dwindled, but expressed confidence that the rebel MLAs will support the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) combine during the floor test, saying that “figures can change any time”.
He said the rebel MLAs will face the real test of their loyalty towards the party when they return to Mumbai. Raut also attacked BJP leader Narayan Rane, without naming him, for “threatening” NCP chief Sharad Pawar. Shinde is currently camping with 37 rebel MLAs of the Sena and nine independents in a Guwahati hotel.
Talking to reporters, Raut, who is Sena’s chief spokesperson, admitted that his party’s numbers in the Assembly have gone down due to the revolt. “The rebel group claims to have the required figures and democracy runs on numbers. But figures can change anytime. When the rebels return, it will be a test of their loyalty towards Balasaheb Thackeray and the Shiv Sena,” he said.
