Rebel Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde late on Saturday said Shiv Sena workers should understand that he was fighting to save the party from the clutches of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA).
In a tweet in Marathi, Shinde said, “My dear Shiv Sena workers, try to understand the machinations of the MVA. I am fighting for rescuing the Shiv Sena and Sena workers from the clutches of the python of the MVA. I dedicate this fight to the interest of Shiv Sena workers,” he added.
Shinde and his supporters earlier said they want the Sena to pull out of the “unnatural” coalition with the Congress and the NCP, and revive the alliance with BJP.
